West Kirby on the Wirral peninsula has 3 island which can only be reached at low tide. It’s is a fairly easy walk over the sands to the Islands. But as low tide is 2;00 we can do a short walk up to Caldy hill with views over the Dee estuary. Alternatively some could stay for a leisurely walk around the marina area.

As this is a coach walk numbers will be limited and depending on the uptake will also be the price of the trip. So I need members to E -mail me so I can see the numbers and make the costing decisions etc. abc4038@hotmail.co.uk
