Approach and Navigation

Sovereign Harbour is located east of Eastbourne city center, marked by a historic martello tower on each side of the entry channel. Stay within the marked approach to avoid a World War 2 wreck just east of the channel entrance. Follow the channel until you reach the two locks, which cycle every 30 minutes on the hour and half-hour and follow the lock keeper's instructions.
