Brightlingsea Harbour
The Brightlingsea scenes of this 2016 action adventure film were water-based and used special effects to transform the Creek into an African jungle setting.
From April to September, the Brightlingsea Harbour foot ferry provides a quick and picturesque journey across the River Colne to Mersea Island and Point Clear, reducing long road trips to just minutes on the water. Just 10 miles from Colchester and Clacton-on-Sea, the harbour itself is rich in maritime heritage and serves as a gateway for exploring the coastline. Whether you’re hopping on the ferry for a short ride or embarking on a longer boat excursion, the harbour connects visitors to stunning coastal landscapes, charming waterside spots, and an unforgettable experience on the water.
