English East Coast Cruising Guides

Cruising guides for England's east coast, from the Thames Estuary north through Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk, the Wash and the Humber to Northumberland. The east coast has a character of its own: shallow waters and drying harbours, tidal rivers winding through marshland, historic ports and quiet creeks. Good local pilotage matters here more than most places.

These guides cover harbour plans, approach directions, tidal information and the kind of detailed local knowledge that makes east coast cruising rewarding rather than nerve-wracking. The rivers and estuaries of Essex and Suffolk in particular repay careful pilotage with some of the most peaceful anchorages on the English coast.
