It&#8217;s possible to visit one of the five inhabited islands which are covered in heathland and fringed by <strong><em>sandy white beaches<\/em><\/strong>. What makes a visit particularly special is that the islands are <strong><em>completely unspoilt<\/em><\/strong> and compared to the mainland they don&#8217;t get crowded!<\/p><p><strong><em>I&#8217;ve been wanting to visit this archipelago for a very long time.<\/em><\/strong> When I was a student living in Cornwall I could never afford to go, so I was excited to discover the islands with Fiona this summer. I was surprised that the prices for the ferry and Skybus have increased fourfold but we were still determined to go. Despite visiting in peak season the weather forecast was extremely rainy. So given the cost of the trip we didn&#8217;t splash out in the end. I hope we get to visit these islands one day as they are one of the most beautiful places you could possibly visit in Cornwall. <strong><em>Few people make it out to the isles of Scilly which make them a truly unique destination!<\/em><\/strong> <\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.islesofscilly-travel.co.uk\/scillonian-iii\/?gclid=CjwKCAjwk6-LBhBZEiwAOUUDp1Qy_d4ksTOFptpxMiiyC2xMZ9v37J-PluGhy_LBJMYjc9I4J0pEhBoCGsYQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>B<\/strong><\/a><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.islesofscilly-travel.co.uk\/scillonian-iii\/?gclid=CjwKCAjwk6-LBhBZEiwAOUUDp1Qy_d4ksTOFptpxMiiyC2xMZ9v37J-PluGhy_LBJMYjc9I4J0pEhBoCGsYQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ook a ferry to the isles of Scilly<\/a> <\/strong><\/em><\/p><p><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.islesofscilly-travel.co.uk\/skybus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book a Skybus to the isles of Scilly <\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Ready to explore Devon &amp; Cornwall?<\/em><\/h3><p><em>I hope this blogpost has provided you with some travel inspiration and perhaps highlighted a few destinations you haven&#8217;t already thought about.
