Tips from the community
If you’re a seafood lover, then Mersea Island is a must visit. As the name suggests, Mersea is, in fact, an island, so you’ll have to plan your trip carefully according to the tide. But a bit of careful planning definitely pays off when you see what’s in store on arrival. Contrasting beautifully with the blue water is a row of perfectly pastel-hued beach huts. Mersea is a great spot for crabbing in the summer months, taking a trip out on a fishing boat, or even spending a cultural couple of hours at Mersea Island Museum.
