The Admiralty Pier was found to be structurally unsafe after the Hurricane of 1987 and closed immediately. The Dover Harbour Board kindly agreed to lease the Pier. The Dover Sea Angling Association (founded in 1903) borrowed £180,000 in order to concrete the walkway, install safety fencing and have new posts cast to match the remaining still erect. Eventually the Pier was re-opened in 1989 and is now manned by DSAA staff. Ticket monies go toward the Pier Stewards wages for selling tickets, keeping the Pier clean, printing, refuse sacks, bleach, disinfectant, life belts and general maintenance often needed after storms.

Leased by the Dover Harbour Board to the Dover Sea Angling Association, The Southern Breakwater is only accessible by boat and provides 213 excellent fishing spaces, both inside and outside of the Harbour.

Tommy, the Pier Patrolman, runs a small tuck shop in the Canteen at the Eastern end for crisps, confectionary, cans of drink, coffee, tea, etc. Angling Clubs may book the Breakwater on other days, evenings, or nights by prior arrangement.
