Komoot has the answer
Walney Island, a spit of land 11 miles by 1 mile off the coast of Barrow-in-Furness, was never on our travel itinery.
Being in the Lake District, we did not expect such seaside weather.
But where to go for walk? When in doubt, I always to turn to the app Komoot, and this fine route will reveal two coast lines in the middle of the island.
The seaward side is geocache laden and part of the newly formed English Coast Path.

The round house cafe provides a cake and tea stop and we move inland to walk the estuary at Jubilee Bridge until we can see its Northern intlet.

We wanted to see Piel Island, so a car relocation to the Southern Nature Reserve. £3 pp entry fee, which Mrs M tried to talk me into spending. Ultimately, our minds made up by a dog ban.
