Uphill Wharf Marine Centre | Uphill, Weston-super-Mare, Somerset

Marine Centre

We have trot moorings with pontoon access for dinghies. Craft will float for approx 5 hours on most tides. We now have mooring sites available from £230 per annum. Dinghies can also be based at a pontoon by our yard in an extended access area for use to attend craft on our moorings or the river Axe.

Pontoon moorings also available on Tidal river and our Marine Lake for long or short term use. Can be used for week ending or longer periods of stay, all facilities available, toilets, showers, washrooms and cafe on site. Suitable craft are occasionally available for sale that can be adapted for the above purpose.

Tidal access to the Bristol Channel by the River Axe and the Brean Down peninsula to all local ports, Cardiff, Barry, Swansea, Porlock Weir, Watermouth and Ifracombe. Low tide walks start here to Weston beach, 5 minutes walk, or Brean Down with Fort, the local hill with historic Church or the Mendip Hills through the adjacent Nature Reserve.
