As with all the Wash rivers, the Welland can have high rates of tide and current, especially over springs. A passage plan which takes account of optimum time of arrival is therefore advisable. You can obtain local knowledge by contacting the marina. For a first visit, arriving when the tide is slack or even at the start of the ebb might be sensible. Beginning the approach from the Wash before half tide rising is not recommended.
Services & Information
While the nearby settlement is tiny, the Fosdyke welcome is huge and friendly. There is no better reason to visit than to enjoy the Ship Inn which sits immediately adjacent to the moorings.
Also privately owned, The Ship is a gem of a pub providing traditional beers and a menu to delight even the most discerning palate.
