Getting here

Access to the island during the winter is via the causeway only. Our times (including last slots) have allowed for the tides and give you plenty of time to relax and enjoy your experience.

Please note: As a tidal island we're weather dependent, so if the elements work against us we will cancel your booking, giving as much notice as possible.
