About Victoria Harbour.

Victoria Harbour. the 24/7 all-weather, all-tidal port of refuge for the Outer Forth and North Sea limits, allowing for the return of RNLI's all-weather lifeboat John Neville Taylor, to one side mooring within the security of the port. When John Muir was growing up in Dunbar, one of the largest and most exciting developments in the town’s history began. The long awaited Victoria Harbour, built in the shelter of the castle ruins, was opened in 1842 and spelled the final death knell for most of the remains of Dunbar Castle. In 1567, following the Battle of Carberry Hill, the castle was destroyed by an Act of Parliament, and has been a ruin ever since.
