Welcome to Heybridge Basin

Heybridge Basin is a small village located in the Maldon district of Essex, England. It is situated on the banks of the River Blackwater and is known for its picturesque waterfront and historic buildings. The village is home to a number of traditional pubs, restaurants, and cafes, making it a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.

One of the main attractions in Heybridge Basin is the marina, which is home to a variety of boats and yachts. Visitors can take a stroll along the waterfront and admire the boats, or even take a boat trip along the river. The marina is also home to a number of shops and businesses, including a chandlery, boatyard, and sailing school.

Another popular attraction in Heybridge Basin is the historic sea lock, which dates back to the 18th century. The lock was originally built to allow boats to pass from the River Blackwater to the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation, and is now a popular spot for visitors to watch the boats passing through. The lock is also home to a small museum, which tells the story of the lock and its importance to the local area.
