This little trip has been on my 'to do' list for some time. Plenty of tide assist and a total distance of 19 Nautical Miles ( 36kms )
Whitton Island is an island situated at the western end of the Humber Estuary in northern England.
The almond-shaped island straddles the county boundary between the counties of East Riding of Yorkshire to the north and North Lincolnshire which otherwise runs over tidal water roughly along the centre line of the estuary. Parts of the island fall within the boundaries of four civil parishes.
Only in recent years has the island emerged sufficiently from the mud and sand bank known as Whitton Sand to be mapped by the Ordnance Survey as a new feature. Whitton Sands forms a part of the Humber Wildfowl Refuge.
Whitton Island is owned by Associated British Ports. In March 2017 the RSPB signed a 50-year lease on the island to manage it as a Nature Reserve.
