West Mersea Tide Times

Don’t forget to check the tide times for getting on and off the island before coming to Mersea. When there are very high tides The Strood can be flooded for up to an hour or more. We always advise that if the tide is 5.00 metres and above it will more than likely cover the Strood. In this case we would recommend allowing up to an hour and a half either side of the tide to get on or off the island safely. Don’t take chances trying to cross it under these conditions. Click here to Download our 2019 Tide Table, you can also collect a Tide Table book in our Reception.
