Local amenities

There are two public houses: "Blackwater Bar & Bistro" (recently taken over and refurbished in late 2014, previously known as the "Horny Toad"), which is situated in the yard of Blackwater Marina, and "Hardy's" (recently refurbished and previously known as The General Lee until July 2010). Maylandsea Bay Sailing Club and Harlow (Blackwater) Sailing Club are based in the village. The local school is Maylandsea County Primary School, in Katonia Avenue. There is a small local shop located near the bakery and barber's.

Parish council

Mayland Parish Council meets monthly at the Henry Samuel Hall. The villages of Mayland and Maylandsea are in an area considered to be at risk from flooding, and the Parish Council, working with Maldon District Council, is developing a localised emergency plan to link into the wider emergency strategy covering the whole district.[3]

Local interest

There are always fossils to be found in Maylandsea, the most common being lobster fragments.[6] There is a crashed P51B Mustang from World War II near Lawling Creek.[citation needed]
