Blackwater Marina lies on the UK's east coast in a natural, sheltered harbour between the historic maritime towns of Maldon and Burnham on Crouch. The Continent is a day's sail away, and London an hour by car or train. The marina has fully serviced pontoon berths for 196 vessels and hardstanding for another 150. In addition, its 100 swinging moorings can offer access at all states of the tide to the region's best cruising waters and some of the UK's rarest wildlife. The marina has a rich heritage and today is home to an enviable diversity of craft – from Thames Barges and fishing smacks to racing yachts and modern motor cruisers. The extensive shoreside facilities are also decidedly modern, but one thing hasn't changed over the years – the good old-fashioned Blackwater welcome
We motored up Maylandsea Creek in our Dutch barge and phoned to see if there was a berth overnight
Charlie was extremely helpful to find us one
The marina folk are very friendly and we felt most welcomed
This included the pub with the chef opening up his kitchen to sort us some food
We had a lovely visit thank you
