Abbey River Tideway where there are two larger islands. It is much smaller than Canvey Island and the Isle of Sheppey and narrowly ahead of Andersey Island facing Abingdon-on-Thames, another market town with an abbey which had multiple medieval mills, another of note being Westminster Abbey, the island of which Thorney Island no longer exists. The outfall of the Abbey River is 400 m above Chertsey Bridge, into the weir pool of Chertsey Weir. The manmade strictly-considered "island" the bypass channel forms is outranked in size since the 2002 completion of the Jubilee River by the example containing Dorney and Eton, Berkshire.
Grand Codroy Estuary estuary since 1974. The estuary consists of adjoining marine and intertidal habitats with an elevation no more than one metre. Four islands are located within the estuary, and the intertidal sandbars give way to mudflats "supporting rich growths of Zostera". The site is surrounded by cultivated grasslands. The marine area is shallow, at most two metres deep in intertidal areas, and somewhat deeper in the river channel. It is bounded by privately owned land, the Codroy Valley Provincial Park, and the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. Nearby are the Grand Codroy and Little Codroy rivers, which are popular fishing destinations.
