Visitors can expect to see a series of water falls, locks, and weirs on the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation. The area offers excellent views of the two main rivers in the region.
The freshwater rivers feeding into the tidal salt water below the weir create a unique environmental area. This helps provide the region with its famous sea salt.
Visitors can reach Beeleigh Falls on foot by joining the canal alongside a nearby car park or by driving along a private road towards a golf course. There is limited parking available near the bridge.
Nearby attractions include a privately owned abbey, a mill house, and the remains of a mill. Visitors can also explore the area as part of a walking route that includes Heybridge Basin.
Visitors can enjoy the picturesque riverside gardens, a Grade II* Listed parish church, a children's play area, and a museum with a fascinating collection. There are also opportunities for boating and sailing nearby.
