my favourite is Lake Windermere, beautiful scenery, plenty to do fishing, kids knee boarding, fresh water so no need to flush engine, fishing, snokelling etc
negatives; need to register boat but only £15 for year, also 10mph speed limit but that didnt bother me.
also lyme regis fishing, portland harbour

We all love our own bits , but for me Christchurch is great. Freshwater river, beach inside the harbour, and real 'sea' with no speed limits just outside !
and a choice of Cafe, pubs, resteaurant literally on the river/ beach...
and free to launch

Nothing personal you understand, but I'm kinda glad it isn't!
No crowds, no herds of yotties, no charges, no fees, no hassle, no Harbour Masters, no rozzers, no worries......
