During the season (April to October) details of the walks and boat trips which I am planning will be published here and updated on a weekly basis. Please note that many of these are weather-dependent and that the boatmen's decision is final.
You should wear walking shoes or robust trainers for these walks, flip-flops or similar footwear are not suitable.
If you are visiting Scilly and would like to go to a particular uninhabited island, please contact me two to three weeks in advance and I will try to arrange a trip while you are here.
There will be no walks in weeks commencing Saturday 1st, Saturday 8th and Saturday 15th August.
