Lincombe Boatyard sits on Blanksmill Creek at the northern end of Salcombe Harbour in the South Hams, Devon.

Managed by Winters Marine Ltd, it is a working boatyard connected to deep-water Salcombe moorings via an approach channel dredged to allow access at most states of the tide. The site lies along a popular walking route between Salcombe and Blanksmill Bridge.

Because the boatyard is an active working environment — with cranes up to 60 tonnes and other plant in operation — walkers following the public right of way are asked not to cross the yard itself.

A footpath runs along the right-hand edge of the site, skirting the boatyard via a shallow ditch before continuing through a series of gates into the surrounding countryside.
