I'm not entirely sure as my route was quite 'out and back', but I do remember from Street View that it looked like a clear route to Burnham was possible, albeit a little inland.

If I had longer I'd have considered heading down there and getting the mini ferry to Wallasea Island and come back through Southend etc.
Is it actually possible to cross the peninsular - ie ride from where you were at St Peters on the Wall, south of Tillingham back to Burnham-on-Crouch? It was gated years ago, but it was always possible to circumvent the gates. However, following multiple thefts of agricultural equipment more recently, meant that they installed some Proper Gates making it impossible to follow the route south. Which is a shame, because being a private road, means that there is next to zero motorised traffic on it.
