About Us


     
  Teesside Nautical Studies has operated on it's present site, under the Transporter bridge, for over 30 years. It was initially part of the former Southlands school (now the Southlands Leisure Centre) and more recently as a part of Middlesbrough Council's Education Department offering a service to Schools, Youth and Community Groups, Individuals and Industrial and Commercial users.
