Diglis Basin Marina

We did not visit Diglis Basin and do not know if this marina was even there when we were there. They did have boats moored in the basin

Canal and River

Wocester is at the intersection of the Worcester-Birmingham Canal and the Severn River. You can take a boat up or down the canal, and through a lock into the river and go up along another side of Worcester. You are not limited to doing narrowboating on the river - you can have a regular motor boat if you wish.

Equipment: Viking Afloat is a narrowboat rental company that is in Worcester and will rent you a boat with all the facilities to live on board for a weekend or a week or ten days. Their boats are painted yellow and brown. We rented from another company, but we saw some of the Viking boats.

Address: Lowesmoor Wharf, Lowesmoor, Worcester, WR1 2RS

Directions: Entrance from the water is in the side of the brick wall just on the side of the bridge.
