The St Germans river enters the Tamar south of Saltash and can be accessed from Wearde Quay or Antony Passage (slipways). It is a broad estuarial river much reduced in width by mud banks at low tide, dividing into two arms about 5 miles from Wearde Quay, just short of St Germans, This is the confluence of the River Lynher which is tidal for about 3 miles from Notter Bridge, and the River Tiddy which can be followed on the tide past St. Germans Quay for 4 miles to Tideford, to which commercial craft formerly plied.
