Rye Harbour is a village located on the East Sussex coast in southeast England, near the estuary of the River Rother: it is part of the civil parish of Icklesham and the Rother district. Rye Harbour is located some two miles (3.2 km) downstream of the town of Rye.
The River Rother from Rye seawards, and including the village of Rye Harbour, is under the control of the Environment Agency.[1] At the village itself there are yacht moorings; a small fishing fleet (coded RX: Rye SusseX); some commercial shipping; and a long-established lifeboat station.[2] There is also a holiday village called Rye Harbour Holiday Park [3] alongside the village itself.[4]
An industrial estate straddles the road to Rye Harbour from Rye. It contains warehousing, light manufacturing and an oil refinery.[5]
The village community has set up a pictorial website, aimed at promoting its history.[6]
