Shellness is a private estate and notices all around tell casual walkers to keep out. However, at the end of the path along the sea wall from Leysdown Country Park, you just walk along the beach below the high tide level and it brings you past the hamlet, still giving good views of the variety of interesting houses. This view is halfway along to the old coastguard cottages at the southern end. The house seen here next to the beach looks like it ought to be a lookout.
