Oh Scilly in summer, what can we say? Bright, white; perfection on a pint-sized plate! Crystal clear seas and warm cobalt blue skies bring out the best of these islands.
Time to take to the water – swim the coves or between the islands, hire a SUP or sailing boat and take off for uninhabited shores, snorkel with seals, and island hop to your heart’s content.
Low tide pop-up festivals in the channel between Tresco and Bryher, pilot gig racing, dazzling unspoilt beaches for impromptu picnics.
Go shrimping, beach comb for cowrie shells, fish for your supper or let the evening supper boats lead you to a lasting memory of dining on a tiny island as the sun dips away and fills the sky with red. Find a rock; sit and gaze.
Night skies like no other, light pollution nowhere to be found, the mighty moon, its glittering stars and the Milky Way to lead you home.
