Porlock Weir beach slipway

This unserviced slipway lies on the shingle beach east of Porlock Weir harbour on the Exmoor coast, launching onto Porlock Bay and the Bristol Channel. OpenStreetMap notes the surface as smaller shingle over larger rocks, not continuous down to mean low water springs because of shingle drift, and recommends pneumatic-tyred trolleys. Porlock Bay dries over a roughly 9 metre tidal range, so launching is easiest close to high tide.
