NO8785 : Stonehaven Harbour
taken 13 years ago, near to Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Stonehaven Harbour
Stonehaven is the largest of the recreational harbours in Aberdeenshire and has three basins extending to 18,200 square metres, with 550 metres of berthing space on the quays. There are also additional mooring chains in the inner harbour. There are almost 140 regular moorings fully occupied and a waiting list for vacancies. There is no longer a Fish Market at Stonehaven and it is now more of a recreational harbour. However it is still used by several fishing boats in the 50-foot class. Under certain storm conditions only the inner basin is suitable for berthing and priority is given to local fishing boats. There are over 50 berths in the inner basin and it can be protected by a heavy steel boom.
