Visiting the RHYC by Sea - the approaches to the River Orwell

Map of River Orwell Approaches

This map is indicative only and must not be used for navigation of the River Orwell.  Visitors are reminded that up-to-date charts are required to navigate this busy commercial river.
Another important point to note for anyone planning to arrive by night is that Felixstowe and Harwich are both very busy ports, operating 24 hours per day. Picking out bouys at night is very difficult and the East Coast is an area of many shifting sandbanks. Please take great care over your navigation.
