under the sun & the moon

It's a place I have to travel to a fair amount. Yet I don't know much about it.

In fact, all I've really seen is Romford.

And romford.. well I could make a joke about it, but I'm from wigan originally, so I can't..

Where would you recommend to visit then in essex if you had a spare day or two?

It's a big county..

I used to live in Brightlingsea, it's lovely. The estuary, the oyster beds, the marina then catch the little foot ferry over to Mersea.

There's some lovely little villages in the areas towards Suffolk like Dedham.

I wonder if there are more White Vans registered per capita in Essex than elsewhere? Or is it a myth?

I really like Brightlingsea, I have a few friends with boats there and it’s a good place to sail from If heading around France and Spain

Also like West Mersea Island, the Hut is great for fresh sea food.

And of course Jaywick, The bizarre little shantytown by the beach that was deemed the most deprived area in Europe. The local pub is definitely worth a visit
