SUP Hullbridge, River Crouch, Essex
Facing north onto the western end of the Crouch Estuary, Hullbridge is a handy spot for the top of the tide if there’s a bit of weather about. Useful routes are pretty well limited to the loop up to Battlesbridge and back, but it’s a great social spot as there are a couple of pubs up there – and a couple more, plus a curryhouse, back in Hullbridge!
