Welcome to Bradwell Marina, situated in the
picturesque Blackwater Estuary.
Ideally situated for exploring the river and
other east coast estuaries Good access to
France, Holland and Belgium and beyond,
Bradwell Marina is available at most states of
the tide to all but the deepest draft boats. We
have over 350 berths with room for 50
visitors.
Visiting yachts are welcome and should
contact the Marina office before 5pm the day
they are planning to arrive. They will then be
allocated a suitable berth and told how to find
it in the Marina.
Bradwell Marina is situated at Bradwell
Waterside, on the south shore of the River
Blackwater. It is ideally placed for the east
coast sailor, with the Blackwater Estuary “on
the doorstep” and in easy reach of other
Essex Rivers. It is also well placed for cruising
to the French, Dutch and Belgium coasts.
Deeper draft vessels must excercise caution
at low water, especially during spring tides, as
the navigable channel in Bradwell Creek
becomes shallow. The Marina basin and
entrance were excavated to give a minimum
depth of 6-8ft at low watersprings. Diesel and
super unleaded petrol are available on the
fuel pier 7 days a week.We have a Clubhouse
with showers and toilets and a separate
building with laundry facilities.
is a quiet village, and has been a
special place from Roman times to today.
With peaceful walks and a smugglers' pub
just minutes away, you could not ask for a
more relaxing spot. Nearby St. Peters
Chapel is said to be the oldest church in
Essex.
