This is principally a commercial port and is closed to leisure boats (see comment at bottom of the page - September 2015). It should only be entered as a Port of Refuge in an emergency.
Anchoring in the harbour is not permitted.
Shelter here is very good, and there are restrictions as to where leisure vessels moor.
It is still possible to anchor here outside the harbour in the shelter of the breakwaters.

PORT IS CLOSED TO LEISURE SAILORS
Docked here Sept 2015 in a 7metre sailing boat, at mole indicated in 777 anchorages pilot book(2014 edition). Within 2 minutes Port Police arrived “Leisure boats are not permitted to enter the port” and I had to leave. There is also a prohibition of anchoring/navigation for about 500metres on the outside of the west breakwater (near the silos) and a prohibition on all “Boating” within 200m of beaches either side of the port but is so shallow you can anchor 500m off and still be in the lee of the breakwaters.
