International ferries run to the French port of Dieppe, Seine-Maritime, a distance of 75.5 miles (122 km). Although there are some derelict signs of the one-time ferry operations, the harbour still sees a great deal of freight and passengers movement.

The port is also served by Newhaven Harbour railway station.
