If you’re a "foody" there are plenty of restaurants and cafés and if you love seafood you shall never want to leave. You are surrounded by a superb coastline and a few minutes’ walking distance from the oyster fishery, where you can experience the freshest oysters. This is Britain’s most easterly inhabited island and access to the island is via the Stood causeway crossing... so watch the tide times! A superb location for walking, bird-watching, swimming and cycling, East Mersea boasts very quiet beaches of sand and shingle and often you will be the only person there.
