|August 13, 2025
Thousands more waterways are being used for swimming and boating in England than previously recorded, new data reveals.
A government analysis of the ways that England's waterways are used for recreation has found 3,347 "water recreation locations" in rivers, lakes and seas around the country. These are places where people take part in activities including swimming, rowing and paddleboarding.
The Environment Agency had previously identified 342.
Of these 3,347 areas, 1,727 were used for swimming, 1,706 for paddleboarding, 220 for rowing, 1,065 for sailing and 87 for surfing. Popular inland sites included catchments around the Thames, Great Ouse, Cam, Nene, Tyne and Trent rivers and the natural lakes of the Lake District.
