RECOMMENDED CHANNELS

The West Channel is the channel used by the largest tankers; the East Channel is available to all vessels of suitable size. Vessels able to use the East Channel are requested to do so when larger tankers are entering or leaving via the West Channel. Vessels whose draft and minimum safe under-keel clearance allow, may use the North Channel after requesting permission from Milford Haven VTS. For the latest information on controlling depths within the channels, consult Milford Haven Port Authority at www.mhpa.co.uk
