Town: Mersea Island is one of the UK's most easterly islands. The island's biodiversity attracts hikers, birdwatchers, and watersports enthusiasts. The east provides pristine, isolated places abounding with animals and wonderful beaches, while the west has shopping, cafés, restaurants, and watersports. The island's oysters may be bought from huts or savoured in local restaurants. It's about nine miles from Colchester, a magnificent town with a castle, museums, a zoo, superb sports and leisure facilities, a cinema, great shopping, and nice restaurants. Ipswich has a good retail district, museums, galleries, and the fashionable Waterfront marina with wine bars, restaurants, and river boat cruises. A memorable island for a vacation.
