Walk to St. Peter's Island (INT Members Only) 2024

Join us for our annual walk across the tidal flats to St. Peter's Island. We will walk over on the dropping tide and enjoy some time exploring the island before we race the incoming tide to make it back to the mainland! We will discuss the rich history of St Peter’s Island, from farming to fishing to fossils.

Note: Please bring enough water and necessary snacks. It is important that appropriate footwear and clothing are worn for this event. Make sure you are wearing something you are prepared to get wet in. On the walk back the water may be quite high. Wear light old sneakers or closed toe sandals, both with socks as the sand is abrasive. DO NOT wear open sandals. DO NOT wear rubber boots. The water can get high enough to fill your boots. We are moving with the tides- leaving at the appropriate time is crucial to avoid getting stuck at St. Peter's Island! The walk will take about 4 hours and be approximately 6km.

We will email all registered participants trip details prior to the event. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Island Nature Trust.
