Review for Flowerpot Island - Beachy Cove
Reviewed by: Maryanne on Aug 8, 2023
Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 38'
Draft: 0.0'Overall Rating:5Note this is the only island in the fathom five chain where it is permitted to go ashore (yay). However to take your own boat/kayak/dinghy requires a (free) permit available from the national park visitor center in Tobermory.
Plenty of trails ashore
Keep clear of the busy tourist boat traffic
Currently (2023) the dock is out of action (storm damage) and there is no repair plans in the calendar as yetView location on the Waterway Guide Explorer
