great place for a beer and food after 2,5 hours hike!

Osea Island is a relatively unknown Essex retreat in the Blackwater Estuary with private beaches, no shops or restaurants and mainly self catering accommodation.

Not sure who put up the questions or who answered them. Builders were working on the Beech Hut in Jan2024

Perfect for a coffee or lunch stop literally overlooking the water. Busy at peak times.

Great location by the sea lock where the Blackwater Navigation meets the estuary, looking across to Northey Island.

Right at the end of the Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation sits Heybridge Basin. Home of the sea lock which releases the canal out to sea. The basin meant that sea vessels could enter the canal and travel all the way up to Chelmsford. There are two pubs here, the Jolly Sailor and the Old Ship, plus the Lock Tea Room if you are in need of a pitstop.

Backed by a caravan park, Mill Beach has stunning views over the estuary and the unique beach huts on stilts. The Osea View Cafe on the beach makes a great waterfront stop on any hike.

A tidal causeway known as The Stumble connects Osea Island with the mainland. Sadly the island isn't open to the public but you can visit by staying in the island's hotel. It was used in the 2012 film 'The Woman in Black' as the 'Nine Lives Causeway'. It is popular with musicians looking for a remote recording venue. Rhianna is said to have recorded an album there in 2019.
