Things to do around Scilly Isles
The Scilly Isles, also known as the Isles of Scilly, are a group of stunning islands located off the southwestern tip of Cornwall, England. These sub-tropical gems offer a unique and unforgettable day out. Here are some activities to make the most of your visit:
1. Island Hopping:
- The Scilly Isles consist of five inhabited islands and numerous smaller ones. Take a boat trip and explore the different islands. Each has its own character, from the bustling St. Mary's to the serene Tresco. Discover hidden coves, white sandy beaches, and charming villages.
2. Scenic Flights:
- Fly from Land's End Airport to St. Mary's or Tresco with Skybus, the Isles of Scilly's own airline. The 15-minute flight offers breathtaking views of the turquoise sea and scattered islands. It's a memorable way to arrive and appreciate the beauty from above.
3. Historic Sites:
- Visit Tresco Abbey Gardens, a subtropical paradise with exotic plants from around the world. Explore the ancient ruins of King Charles' Castle on Tresco, offering panoramic views. Don't miss the Garrison Walls on St. Mary's, remnants of a 16th-century fortification.
4. Beach Bliss:
- Relax on pristine beaches like Porthcressa Beach on St. Mary's or Appletree Bay on Tresco. The crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or simply soaking up the sun.
5. Wildlife Watching:
- Scilly is a haven for birdwatchers. Spot puffins, seals, and rare seabirds. Take a boat trip to the uninhabited Eastern Isles for a chance to see seals basking on the rocks.
6. Picnic with a View:
- Pack a picnic and head to St. Martin's, known for its stunning beaches and rugged coastline. Enjoy your meal while gazing at the azure sea and neighboring islands.
7. Explore Hugh Town:
- Hugh Town on St. Mary's is the main hub. Wander through its narrow streets, visit local shops, and enjoy a meal at a waterfront restaurant. Don't miss the Star Castle, a historic fortress turned hotel.
8. Seal Sanctuary:
- Visit the Seal Sanctuary on Gugh, accessible from St. Agnes. Learn about seal rehabilitation and conservation efforts. It's a heartwarming experience for all ages.
9. Art and Crafts:
- Explore local art galleries and studios. The Scilly Isles inspire many artists, and you'll find unique pieces reflecting the natural beauty of the islands.
10. Sunset Views:
- End your day with a magical sunset. Head to Old Town Bay on St. Mary's or find a quiet spot on any of the islands. The changing colors over the sea are truly mesmerizing.
Remember to check ferry or flight schedules and book in advance. Whether you're a nature lover, history enthusiast, or beachcomber, the Scilly Isles promise an unforgettable day out!
