IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Unfortunately Roker Pier and Lighthouse Tours are suspended until further notice

Roker Pier suffered several damage during winter storms and is closed for safety reasons until the repairs are completed. Unfortunately this also means that all tours of Roker Pier are cancelled until these repairs are completed and the pier reopens.

We are in touch with Sunderland Council who are responsible for repairs and we will post here on our website and on our Facebook page @roker pier and lighthouse when we have more details. In the meantime our website shop that sells Roker Pier and Lighthouse goods is still open and the income will help support our not for profit group run entirely by volunteers.
