The harbour is sheltered by a stone quay from which angling trips are available and there are visitors moorings for the boating enthusiasts. Every year in August the Gorran Haven Harbour and Fishermen's Society put on a Gala Fun Day for the villagers and holiday public to take part in. Monies raised go towards the upkeep of the quay and harbour.
