I’ve visited this UK island 700 times – it has more seals than people & gets cut off from the mainland twice a day

Holy Island, or Lindisfarne, off the coast of Northumberland is a tiny island with more seals than residents. Tour guide Patrick Norris, who has visited over 700 times, highlights its pristine nature and the unique experience of the island being cut off from the mainland twice daily due to tidal changes. This often-overlooked destination offers a tranquil escape rich in natural beauty, emphasizing the delicate balance between human presence and wildlife. Its isolation underscores the importance of preserving such natural havens amidst growing tourism pressures.
