📜 Circular artificial island in The Wash, built in the 1970s for a failed engineering project. 🔍 Known locally as "the Donut," it's now a national nature reserve and seabird habitat. # Why Go 🐦 Important nesting ground for up to 3000 seabirds, part of a National Nature Reserve. 📸 Unique circular landform, clearly visible on satellite imagery, resembling a marshy meteor-strike. 🚶 Explore a reminder of an ambitious, abandoned project, or take a scenic walk along the tidal defense for views of the island. # Why Avoid ⚠️ The Wash has fast tides and dangerous mud and silt; stick to marked footpaths. 🚫 No organized tours or trips to the island. 🥾 Access path via East Bank can be muddy, requires caution. # Tips 🅿️ Parking available at a picnic area near the lighthouse on East Bank. 🛶 Reachable by experienced kayakers with tidal knowledge.
