About Gorey

Gorey harbour is a tidal harbour situated on Jersey’s east coast. A new pier was built in 1816 for the benefit of the boats serving the growing oyster industry. It is the nearest harbour to the French coast and Jersey's second port. It provides moorings and shelter to over 240 local vessels. This number is mainly made up of private pleasure craft, although a number of smaller commercial fishing vessels also reside there.

Visitor holding buoys are available at the south western edge of the harbour, with a handful of upper beach moorings available during the summer season.
