At low tide you can see the fish pens, which were used to trap fish that got stuck behind the stone walls as the water was receding. Such pens have been used for hundreds of years and this one is one of the last ones remaining on the island. It has to be periodically repaired, particularly after major storms, but it shows the .

Worth the drive to the end of the island, great views, plentiful parking, small fee to climb the lighthouse. If you have small children or adults who wish to be children north beach access gives rock pools and interesting rock strata. There are cafes, shops but a lovely picnic site should you wish. Sadly the madding crowds are there in abundance.
