Spike Island is a beautiful short walk around what is a historical location for the area. There are lovely wooded and fielded areas to sit and enjoy the day, you can watch the river Mersey passing under the Mersey gateway bridge or the boats on the canal. If boats are what your interested in the boat club on the bank of the canal is open to new members, with a food shop open to the public. Or if more historical boats are your thing, just on the far side of the island (at low tide) you will be able to see the shells of several flat boats that used to sail up and down the Mersey carrying supplies. With a play area, an all weather football pitch for kids and also the Catalyst museum situated off the car park, this is really the perfect place for all. Dog-friendliness: As this is an open space, there are no restrictions to dogs. There are rabbits on the island, and obviously, it is close to the water. So if your dog has tendencies to run off, maybe keep them on their lead.

Spike Island a great place for a walk and lots of wildlife too. Cafe food is really good and cheap! Don't know how they do it for those prices. Well with a visit.
