West Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Island Hopping
Sail from Penzance to the Isles of Scilly, using Hugh Town as a base to hop between islands by boat.
No car rental needed: take the train to Penzance, catch the ferry or a small plane to the islands, and base yourself in Hugh Town on St Mary's. Take daily boat trips to the off-islands to explore subtropical gardens, white sand beaches, and seabirds. With a relaxed pace, it is perfect for couples and walking enthusiasts. Highly weather-dependent, so leave some buffer in your schedule.
Ferries operate from around March to November. A new vessel will take over from 2027; check the timetable for that year.
