The Island

About Leisure Island

The water is never far away, in fact, the Island even floats on a ‘lens’ of fresh water! The scenery changes with these tides to add a special charm to Island life.

For people with young families there is always lots for children to do, from building sand castles and swimming to boating, sailing, wind-surfing and fishing.

Then there is walking, jogging or cycling in and around the Island. One never tires of exploring the maze of little lanes, lovely gardens, plentiful birdlife and also meeting friendly people. It also boasts convenient amenities that include bowling greens, tennis courts, a library, an excellent restaurant, coffee shop and a unique art gallery-cum-antique shop!

Leisure Island enjoys a very temperate climate with the waterfront areas slightly cooler than the interior.

The Leisure Island Residents Association (LIRA) introduced a 24-hour security patrol for a realistic monthly fee and the Island has always been a safe place to live.
