Hilbre Island

Welcome to HilbreIsland.co.uk – thanks for visiting!

This is an unofficial site for the well known Hilbre Island that is situated in the River Dee off the Wirral Coast near West Kirby and Hoylake. We’ve published this site to provide useful information about the island and the surrounding coastal area and hope you like it!

Hilbre is actually the largest of the three islands that you can see from the shore. The smallest is called Little Eye, the one in the middle is called Middle Eye and Hilbre is the largest and the only inhabited one.

The islands are home to a wide variety of bird and wildlife and the Dee Esyuary itself is a Site of Special Scientific Interest - please treat the area and the wildlife with respect.
