Pilotage notes

Not to be used for Navigation

In Swansea Bay tidal streams flow anti-clockwise for 9.5 hrs (Swansea HW - 3.5 to +6), with at times a race off Mumbles Hd. From HW - 6 to - 3 the stream reverses, setting N past Mumbles Hd towards Swansea. Keep seaward of Mixon Shoal.

When N of SW Inner Green Grounds (SWIGG) SCM It buoy, Q (6) + LFI 15s keep to W of dredged channel and clear of commercial ships. Yachts must motor in harbour and approach, maximum speed 4kn.

7

Swansea Docks All Marina users are reminded that we share the entrance to the river with the fairway for commercial shipping entering and leaving the port of Swansea.

It is very important that all boat owners obey the rules laid down by the authorities and give way to commercial shipping at all times.

Port Regulations

8

When entering the river all craft should maintain a listening watch on Swansea Dock’s VHF channel 14 (Any instruction issued by the Harbour Master on this frequency must be followed).

If in doubt call “Swansea Docks” on VHF14 or “Tawe Lock” on VHF 18 ABP docks can also be contacted on 0870 6096699.

Entering and Leaving the Port All pleasure craft using the port must observe the rules governing the “Prevention of Collisions at Sea”, particularly when navigating within the dredged channel North of the S.W.I.G.G. buoy (South West Inner Green Grounds) to the harbour entrance. You are advised to approach the harbour entrance in the waters to the west of the dredged channel (where practicable).

Large vessels entering or leaving the harbour must be given a wide berth at all times.

All pleasure craft must be under power when in the vicinity of the harbour and should clear waters used by commercial shipping as soon as possible.

Access to Tidal Locks All access from the sea to the Marina is through the Tawe Barrage Lock during the published hours. During busy locking periods a queuing system will be in operation.

Vessels that do not make contact with the Lockmaster or disobey his/her instruction will not be given priority over other traffic. In the interest of every boat owner’s safety, it is of the utmost importance that the Lockmaster’s instructions are obeyed at all times.

Vessels leaving either lock must then transfer to the next lock’s VHF channel on approach and use the appropriate procedure above.

Lock Availability It is essential that all boat owners wishing to proceed through the locks or swingbridge operate a VHF radio.

Vessels must call “Swansea Marina” on channel 80 before leaving their berth to request lock information and must remain listening on CH. 80 until passage through the bridge or lock is completed.

When you require use of the Tawe Barrage lock you must call ‘Tawe Lock’ to request information and remain listening on CH. 18 until passage through the lock is completed.

Do not proceed into the locks unless

Important Notes Lock Procedure and Tidal Curves, Datum, Time & Height Differences at Swansea Marina Normal procedure for locking out through the Tawe Barrage lock is for the lock to be taken down on the hour and return to the river on the half hour.

The first lock out of the day at the Tawe lock will be taken down at approximately 0710.

The last Tawe lock in is half an hour before the close of business each day.

Boat owners should be ready to leave their berth at approximately quarter to the hour to allow vessels sufficient time to enter the Tawe lock.

Any deviation from the above will be at the discretion of the duty Tawe Lockmaster who will pay due regard to the volume of traffic and any other prevailing conditions.

Any vessels not returning on the same day are required to inform the Lockmaster and Coastguard. A holding buoy is situated downstream from the lock and may be used outside of locking hours. Great care is necessary at low water spring tides as there is a danger of 10 drying out.

DO NOT PROCEED LOCK CLOSED OR FREE FLOW IN OPERATION

DO NOT PROCEED LOCKING IN PROGRESS

Swansea Marina

where the city meets the sea...

The Marina’s unique location guarantees something to please every member of the family Swansea Marina’s central location in the Bristol Channel makes it an unsurpassed cruising centre with marinas to the east including Cardiff, Watchet and Portishead, with Neyland and Milford Haven to the West. The spectacular, rugged coastline of Devon is a mere twenty or so miles away.

16

The vibrant city centre of Swansea lies right on our doorstep. With a huge range of shops and a worldfamous covered market this is just the place to indulge in a little retail therapy! There are a large number of bars and cafes and an increasingly cosmopolitan range of restaurants.

If the sun is shining why not enjoy your coffee al fresco at one of the many establishments offering tables with a view over the water.

When the weather is less kind you can enjoy one of our museums or art galleries, or take the children to the fabulous water park at the LC2.

If you should decide to moor with us permanently you will find that there is something happening throughout the year. Annual events include the Waterfront Wonderland with its winter fair and ice skating; the annual Air Show, in the spring the annual Clyne in Bloom event and, of course, the Swansea Bay Summer Festival with events too numerous to mention.

Closer to home lie the charming villages and breathtaking coastline of the Gower Peninsula. Whether you are looking for secluded rocky coves or sweeping sandy bays you will not be disappointed. Gower beaches frequently feature in lists of top twenty British beaches, why not visit and find out why.

Sports fans will not be disappointed; we are not far from top flight rugby and championship football at the city’s Liberty Stadium.

All watersports are well catered for and numerous gyms offer the opportunity to work off last night’s dinner!

Swansea’s new 3,500 capacity Arena is now open, checkout who is performing and purchase tickets at www.atgtickets.com/venues/ swansea-arena.

So, whatever the weather and whatever the time of year, the city of Swansea and its acclaimed marina will always have something to offer.

IMPORTANT! Check your boat Insurance cover is correct You must have valid marine insurance prior to entering our Marina. Fully comprehensive insurance is preferable and it must include salvage i.e. removal of wreck. Cover should have a 5 million pounds Third Party Liability.

Please check your insurance policy includes the following cover:

You should know that, as a boat owner, you may be personally liable for all damage to your own boat, third party boats and pollution costs should your boat not be insured, or an insurance company decline a claim.

You should take this opportunity to check all the details are correct and accurate to make sure the insurance company have all the information they need to process any claims smoothly:

During 2024 we had several boats sink where the boat owner did not have salvage cover. Please check this with your insurer. The total costs to raise a boat after it sinks can be anywhere between £2,000 - £50,000. These costs can include specialist dive teams, support boats, oil spillage booms, oil & fuel extraction, and associated waste disposal charges.

26

• up to 5 million pounds Third Party Liability • salvage/ removal of craft

• The price you paid for the boat • The correct make / model of the craft • Where the boat is moored (Swansea Marina) If you are uncertain contact your insurance broker or insurance provider to check the details and ensure that your policy is in keeping with your details and requirements.

Christmas Day - Closed

What are lock Closures?

The lock will stop operating when the tide level drops below 1.5 metres. This happens on spring tides and the closure will last approximately 90 minutes either side of low water, 3 hours in total.

What is a Lockmaster’s decision?

Our tide heights are only predictions and if we anticipate low water level to be between 1.5 – 1.8 metres, we list these tides as lockmaster decision. There is a possibility of a closure up to 60 minutes either side of low water.

In addition, around low water there may only be enough water to lock out boats with a small draft, it’s possible for the lock to remain operational around low water for ribs and very small boats however deeper draft vessel may need to wait until after low water.
