View of Torquay Inner Harbour Walkway With Moored Cruise Ship ‘Amadea’ in Torbay. A Popular Visitor Stop for Torbay and South Devon.

---

Torquay has two harbours, this is the inner one which offers pontoon moorings and shelter for smaller vessels behind a tidal cill. This retains the water at low tide, keeping the vessels afloat. The outer harbour is fully operational and is a base for many vessels offering boat trips. Also a place for passengers on visiting Cruise ships to embark from the tenders. It is a fully working and busy port. The two harbours are linked by an ornate footbridge resembling ships sails. Small cruise ships can anchor close to this harbour to bring visitors in by tender.
