Not only is the view of the small island of St. Catherine and the fort beautiful, but a visit to the fort itself is also worthwhile. At low tide, you can leisurely walk to the island, and for a fee of 5 GBP, you can tour the fort and learn all about its history. Very worthwhile!

It’s impressive to see the this spot in low and high tide. The island will be accessible in low tide, so be sure to visit during this time if you want to have a closer look.
