Clacton Pier offers one of the most enjoyable sea fishing experiences on the Essex coast. Our spacious berthing arm gives anglers a peaceful, sheltered area to fish away from the crowds.
Whether you are a regular or trying pier fishing for the first time, it’s an ideal location to cast a line and relax by the sea. Across the year you can expect species such as codling, bass and whiting.
For frequent anglers, the 24/7 Annual Fishing Permit provides unlimited access to the pier head day and night, all year round.
Our Day Fishing Permits are ideal for visitors and occasional anglers. Day permits allow access from 8am to 6pm and include use of the berthing arm with up to two rods per person.
