Write a reviewCorpach Basin. Good for a quick swim in the brighter evenings. Big kelp forest which survived the dredging. Good for seal spotting. Watch out for tidal currents, lion's mane jellyfish, boats and tourist cruise boats in summer season. Might become more busy with the opening of new marina.
Follow railway track 50 metres down and there is a gate on the left to take you accross track and onto slipway.
Railway crossing. Boat slipway can be slippy with seaweed. Easy to access on bike and foot if living locally, car park at canal docks and train stop.

Check the Conditions tab for current wave height, swell and wind. Review the Water Quality tab for the latest Environment Agency classification. Always read recent community reports for local knowledge.
Check the Tides tab for today's high and low times. Many coastal spots are best around high tide when there's enough water depth, or during slack water when currents are weakest.
A tow float for visibility, warm layers for after, and footwear for rocky entries. In colder months, consider a wetsuit, gloves, and a swim cap.
