The Prince of Wales Pier

Prince of Wales PierThe Prince of Wales Pier is now closed due to the Harbour Expansion project.

The Prince of Wales Pier, named after Edward VII who, when the Prince of Wales, laid the foundation stone in 1892. Originally accessed from Dover Seafront, The Prince of Wales Pier was best described as “family-friendly”, where mums and dads or grandparents could take their youngsters to fish in safety.

Sadly this excellent Pier, which used to be the only fishable Pier when gales put paid to the Southern Breakwater and Admiralty Pier, has now been swallowed up by the redevelopment of the Western Docks and will never be fished again. 

A new shorter pier has been created as part of the redevelopment was was meant to have accommodated anglers in the same manner as the Prince of Wales used to do.  But being much narrower and directly opposite the new outer marina, in reality this was never going to be permitted.
