Excellent Place with or without a Dog
You don't need to leave mersea Island as everything you need is close by and within walking distance. You can even walk around the whole Island if you want (16 miles).
Essex Wildlife Trust Fingringhoe and Tollesbury Wick not very far away have some excellent walks also.
