If you’re planning your bank holiday or summer cruise, the club has news to share from the recent BCYA meeting attended by PCC. The updates concern Lydney and Watchet harbours.
Lydney Harbour
Members are advised that Lydney Harbour is now managed by the Environment Agency following a £2.1m regeneration scheme that completed in June 2023.
Including a new cafe, visitor centre and public toilets, updated information for visitors can be found here.
Watchet Marina
The club has received reports that the approach lights to Watchet harbour are non-operational and water depths continue to be sub-optimal due to silting.
Any member considering a passage to Watchet should contact the Marina Manager at Watchet Marina to check the latest information.
If members are aware of any other updates to popular locations that are visited across the Bristol Channel or further afield, please contact us so we can share the information with the rest of the membership. Equally, if anything above changes, please let us know!
