The Strood Causeway to Mersea Island

Highlight • Cycleway

Connected to the mainland by a causeway, Mersea Island is essentially cut off by the tide for four hours at a time - check these before crossing. Adds a frisson of excitement to any ride.

View of Mersea Island Across the Marshes

Highlight • Natural

The slight elevation of the Tollesbury road gives views clear across the marshes all the way to the buildings of West Mersea rising up on the slopes of Mersea Island.

Tip by

The Jolly Sailor, Heybridge Basin

Highlight • Pub

Juring lockdown, you can order hot food to take away through the window to the left of the main entrance. They'll also fill your water bottle if you're very lucky.
