Update June 2022
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 7th Jun 2022
I reviewed these notes in June 2022. Be aware of the wind farm 3 miles off shore with more to be erected a further 3 miles out. The harbour remains the same but the wind farm support is ramping up.
UPDATE SPRING 2021
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 5th May 2021
I reviewed these notes in May 2021. Be very aware that the off shore development is a moving feast and that any charting information (Navionics or otherwise) left over from last year will be misleading. No other changes.

Update 2015
Written by dononshytalk | 9th Mar 2015
These notes were reviewed by Don in March 2015. Over the last few years there have been changes to the buoyage in the approaches to Blythe and the visual aspect of Blyth has been altered by the removal of the wind turbines on the East Pier. It is also worth noting that the aluminium smelter has closed down so there is less activity at the pier opposite the South Dock. These changes have been reflected in the text
