Tidal signals are displayed from both pierheads. Caution: Navigation close to East Pier and Scarborough Rock should be avoided if a heavy swell is running from N or E. The harbour should be entered between half flood and first quarter ebb taking into account the tidal signals. In the 3 winter months the entrance to East Harbour is closed by a boom. Access to East Harbour is then between Vincent's Pier and Old Pier at the site of the drawbridge.
