River Avon (Bristol)

The owing waters of the River Avon come as something of a culture shock after the connes of the Kennet & Avon Navigation. Leaving Bath there are several miles of pleasurable cruising on the River Avon before arrival in the ancient seaport of Bristol. Theres much to enjoy here too (some even put the attractions on a par with those of Bath), including the mighty SS Great Britain, located in the Floating Harbour. Dont miss the Clifton Suspension Bridge either, together with its informative visitor centre.
