Can you live aboard at coastal moorings with swinging moorings in the UK?
2 of the 163 say you can: Dart Harbour, Galmpton (residential moorings with planning consent) and Bembridge Harbour (liveaboard by arrangement). Living aboard can need planning consent and council tax; ask each site about its terms.
Do I need a licence as well as a mooring?
On top of the mooring fee: of these, 4 need Environment Agency registration (Thames, Medway, Anglian waterways) and 19 need the navigation's own licence. Coastal marinas usually need none.
