Saltford Marina

Saltford Marina sits on the River Avon in the village of Saltford, Somerset, positioned just downstream from Kelston Lock and within easy reach of both Bath and Bristol.

The marina occupies a peaceful riverside setting that serves as a haven for wildlife and offers close contact with the surrounding countryside. The site has deep roots in the area's boating heritage.

The River Avon was made navigable through this stretch via a series of locks dating to 1727, and Saltford became known as "the Henley of the West" thanks to a regatta tradition traceable to 1849.

The marina remains a hub for boating enthusiasts on this stretch of the Avon.
