Now taking bookings for
Hamford Water
Seal Colony Visit

For families and all ages
Launch from Titmarsh Marina into the estuary and enjoy a 3 hour round trip to visit the wild seal colony at Bramble Creek.


NOMAD supplies;

  1. Scupper Pro kayak

  2. ‘Day Tripper’ paddle

  3. ‘Gul’ buoyancy aid

  4. Dry bags for gear


Hamford Water National Nature Reserve is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the reserve is a major global migratory route for tens of thousands of birds as well as a large breeding seal colony which we’ll visit on this trip. Using sit-on-top kayaks, we’ll be able to watch the seals without disturbing them and we have lunch and some quiet time amongst the colony. This a great opportunity to do what few people ever do in the UK, particularly along the Essex coast.

Our sit-on-top kayaks are designed for angling and they are large, stable and fast and form the perfect platform for ‘novice’ paddlers - we also offer double sit-on-top kayaks. Our trips are launched from Titchmarsh Marina at Walton-on-the-Naze and the day includes secure parking, hot showers and all the equipment needed for the trip into the estuary including your kayak, paddle, buoyancy aid and dry bags/watertight drums. There is a good restaurant on site which also has a bar and beer garden and beautiful view of the marina. These trips are 3 hours long and we take groups of 8 paddlers in the morning (10am to 1pm) and afternoon (2pm to 5pm)
