Sully Island (Welsh: Ynys Sili) is a small tidal island at the hamlet of Swanbridge, Vale of Glamorgan, four hundred and fifty metres off the northern coast of the Bristol Channel, midway between the towns of Penarth and Barry and 7 miles (11 kilometres) south of the Welsh capital city of Cardiff. Access to the island is on foot at low tide from the car park of the ''Captain's Wife'' public house. It is 14 and a half acres in extent. Sully Island is one of 43 (unbridged) tidal islands which can be reached on foot from the mainland of England, Wales or Scotland. During the 13th century, the island was the base for "Alfredo De Marisco", a Norman pirate known locally as "The Night Hawk". In the Middle Ages the island was well known for its involvement in the local smuggling trade. ==History==
