To ensure your visit to the Royal Albert Dock is safe, the team have installed visible guidance and signage making sure you can return with confidence, as well as installing hand sanitiser stations around the area. Another great new update is additional alfresco dining at the dock, with increased space between existing outdoor tables to make sure your dining experience is safe and enjoyable, while also taking in the stunning sights.
