Harbours

Guernsey Harbours are responsible for the operation and maintenance of the St Peter Port and St Sampson's Harbours; including their marinas. Guernsey Harbours are also responsible for Search and Rescue in Bailiwick waters. They also provide commercial operators with sea-passenger and freight handling facilities.

What can I find at St Peter Port Harbour?

In the Harbours terminal building you will find: a café; information desk; toilets; and a public telephone. The terminal building is used mainly for foot passengers. For more information on the Guernsey Harbours, please visit their website.

Local Boat Registration

If you are resident or intending to become a resident of Guernsey, Herm or Jethou there is a statutory requirement  to register your vessel with the Harbour Office, provided it is over 3.66 metres (12 feet) in length or capable of 17 knots or more.  Locally registered boats are issued with a registration number which must be marked in accordance with regulations for the type of vessel. Further information is available from www.guernseyharbours.gov.gg and forms can be obtained from the Harbour Office.

Marine Accidents

Under Bailiwick Law there is a requirement to examine and investigate all types of marine accidents to, or on-board, Guernsey vessels worldwide. For more information on how to classify an accident and how to report it please see the page on Marine Accidents in the "Related pages"
