From 01 November until 31 March the harbour village, Steward's House art gallery, shops and Island Cafe will be open and entry is free to all visitors. There are no public boats until 18 March, so the island can only be accessed if the causeway is open during business hours - see causeway times below. All dogs are welcomed during this time.
