Description

El estuario del Támesis es uno de los principales entrantes del mar del Norte en la costa oriental de Gran Bretaña, y es la zona en la que desemboca el río Támesis. Es la puerta que da acceso a todo el tráfico marino de la zona del Gran Londres y donde se concentra una importante actividad industrial y residencial.
No es fácil definir los límites del estuario,[1]​ aunque físicamente la punta de Sea Reach, cerca de la isla de Canvey, en la costa de Essex, sea probablemente el límite occidental. La frontera oriental, como se sugiere en un Estudio Hidrológico de 1882-89, es una línea trazada desde North Foreland, en el condado de Kent, vía el faro de Knock Kentish hasta Harwich, en el condado de Essex. Es desde aquí donde las arenas típicas de los estuarios se extienden.[2]​ El estuario tiene el segundo mayor movimiento de mareas del mundo, pudiendo el agua subir 4 metros desplazándose a una velocidad de 8 millas por hora.
