The Port Of Newhaven

Newhaven - the Gateway to France - is located between Eastbourne and Brighton. It is s ituated at the mouth of the River Ouse in East Sussex, the entrance to Newhaven's harbour lies between two piers.

It was created almost by accident as until 1570, the River Ouse entered the sea at Seaford until a tempest suddenly changed the course of nature and altered the course of the river to a point near its present mouth and so Newhaven was born.

It has grown from its early routes as a barge port to a steamer services to Dieppe to the Ferry service as we know it today.

In April 2001 the east quay, adjacent land and buildings, harbour authority rights and outer harbour were sold to French company Transmanche for approximately £15 million Year round services operate from Newhaven to Dieppe with the French operator - Transmanche Ferries and seasonally by Hoverspeed using their Seacat Fast craft from March to October.
