Accessibility and what to bring with you
WaterMarks Open Studios is a walking tour. The roads of Scotland Island and the Bays are mostly unsealed with some steep climbs. Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes. Bring a hat and sunscreen, and wear loose fitting clothing.
Tennis Court Wharf on Scotland Island is an accessible stop, however many of the art stops and studios are not. Signs on the tour will indicate easier and more difficult access to studios.
Please note, unfortunately given the transport and number of visitors expected we need you to leave your dog at home.
