Whilst we wish for everyone to have a pleasant, safe and above all enjoyable experience whilst visiting the Inner Harbour area, we are conscious of our responsibility to ensure that those using the facilities comply with any bylaws and/or rules issued by our Council and other governing bodies.

We therefore encourage you to make the most of your visit by first acquainting yourself with the rules that may affect your visit.
