Cherbourg harbour master office

Welcome !

The harbourmaster’s office is manned 24/7 by seven port lieutenants under the authority of the Harbourmaster and his Deputy. They work on behalf of the Government and the Ports of Normandy to police:

 

  • Port operations (allocation of berths and occupancy of hardstanding areas)
  • The conservation of the port’s public domain
  • Traffic on the water (organisation of movements of ships, boats and other floating vessels in, out and around the port)
  • Hazardous goods

 

Finally, the harbourmaster’s office plays a part in collecting, transmitting and broadcasting shipping information and in maintaining relations with users.
