Message from ExploringLondon

Eel Pie Island, located in the River Thames at Twickenham, London, is a quirky 8.935-acre spot known for its rich history and artistic community. It is a private island, open to the public only twice a year (in July and December). Once a hotspot for jazz and blues in the swinging '60s, this small island boasts about 50 homes, artists' studios, and nature reserves. With a colorful past that includes hosting legendary bands like The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd, Eel Pie Island continues to charm visitors with its unique character and creative vibe.
