The Hamoaze (Cornish pronunciation: [ˈhɒmøz]) is an estuarine stretch of the tidal River Tamar, between the River Lynher and Plymouth Sound, England.
The Hamoaze flows past Devonport Dockyard, which belongs to the Royal Navy. The presence of large numbers of small watercraft are a challenge and hazard to the warships using the naval base and dockyard.
Settlements on the banks of the Hamoaze are Saltash, Wilcove, Torpoint and Cremyll in Cornwall as well as Devonport, Plymouth in Devon.
