Girvan Harbour

The harbour at Girvan is an important feature in Girvan's economy. Our resident harbour master assists with the smooth running of the Harbour ensuring it meets the rquirements of the Harbours Act 1964.

The harbour is formed at the mouth of the “Water of Girvan” and comprises of several quays on the south bank protected by a pier on the south side of the entrance and a stone breakwater on the north. A timber and steel pile screen jetty protects the berths from river scour.

Girvan supports the expanding leisure industry by providing berthing for both local yachtsmen and visitors as well as being a fishing harbour providing services to fishermen working in the lower reaches of the Clyde and the North Irish Sea. The facilities include a 4-berth slipway, two of which are undercover and a dry dock.

Located in the heart of Girvan the harbour is within walking distance of the town which offers various local restaurants, bars, shopping facilities and a petrol station.

The facilities include 24 hour access shower and toilet blocks, coin operated laundry as well as fresh water and electricity on the pontoons with full CCTV coverage.
