St Mary's Isle
St Mary's Isle (also known as Conister Rock or, colloquially, the Tower of Refuge, Manx: ''Kione y Sker'' or ''Creg Voirrey'') is a partially submerged reef within Douglas Bay on the Isle of Man.
The reef is situated not far from the current ferry terminal. Its eastern part, the Conister Shoals, had to be blasted away when a new harbour breakwater was built in the early 1980s. The rocks are only fully submerged during the Spring high tides, in the same period, they can be accessed very briefly on foot at the corresponding low tides.
==Etymology==
Conister is a corruption of the Manx meaning the 'head of the reef'.
