Navigation

Entrance is via the Conwy Approach channel marked by the fairway buoy, red and white, at 53°17.95′N, 03°55.55′W. Then follow the well buoyed channel to enter the Conwy river. After passing the entrance to Conwy Marina on the starboard side proceed to the port hand buoyed approach channel to Deganwy Marina on the port side of the river. Deganwy marina operates a flap gate which opens approximately 2.5 to 3 hours either side of High Water. Beware: the Conwy river is tidal and streams run at 6 knots on springs and sometimes mooring buoys are covered by the flowing water and are particularly difficult to spot when approaching in the dark. Deganwy Marina breakwater groyne is marked by 3 yellow buoys - Keep Clear. Conwy Approach Channel Diagrams are available free of charge at the Harbour Office, Conwy.
