Shell Island is technically only an island at high tide, and although the land is privately owned, the footpaths across it are open to the public.
Once you get there it is all worth it, as it is the most beautiful water I've ever seen. It is like you are swimming in a pool it is so crystal clear. We didn't know what to expect with this so we went planning to spend a few hours on the island. Come expecting to spend all day!
