Queen's Eyot, River island in Windsor, England

Queen's Eyot stands as a natural sanctuary in the Thames River, featuring dense vegetation and providing shelter for numerous bird species.

The island, named after Queen Victoria, became property of Eton College and developed into a gathering location along the Thames during the 19th century.

The clubhouse on Queen's Eyot serves as a meeting point for rowing clubs and social events, reflecting the strong connection between the Thames and local communities.

Access to Queen's Eyot requires boat transportation, with specific arrangements needed through Eton College for visits and event organization.

The island contains a collection of native Thames Valley plant species and functions as a natural laboratory for Eton College students studying river ecosystems.
