Britain's tidal causeways
Eight places you can only reach at low tide.
Britain has a remarkable number of tidal-island attractions reachable only at low water: Holy Island/Lindisfarne (a real causeway, signed with safe-crossing times), St Michael's Mount (Cornwall), Burgh Island (Devon), Worm's Head (Gower), Davaar Island (Argyll), the Northumberland coast's Cuddy Crags, and Llanddwyn (Anglesey). Always check tide tables.
