Thames Young Mariners, Outdoor education center in Ham, England

Thames Young Mariners occupies 25 acres of land with a 10-acre lagoon connected to the River Thames through a dedicated lock system.

During the 1800s, the current location contained three farms owned by the Earl of Dysart before transitioning to gravel extraction operations in the 1900s.

The center operates educational programs certified by the Royal Yachting Association and British Canoe Union, teaching water navigation skills to young participants.

Visitors can participate in activities including kayaking, sailing, archery, climbing, mountain biking, and orienteering, with adaptations available for disabled groups.

The site features Buffalo Creek, a specialized Teepee village where educational groups can practice wilderness skills and maintain supervised campfires.
