  • Cios SMP2 Summary Document
    Our coastline is changing The Isles of Scilly are a particularly unique and dramatic part of the British Isles, with coastal landscapes and seascapes that have been shaped by natural marine processes over geological timescales. Evolution of the shoreline is usually gradual but occasionally rapid and dramatic and it always involves change of some kind. This type of change often represents a threat to coastal communities. In the past, attempts have been made to stop the effect of erosion or flooding through the building of defences. Rates of erosion and incidents of flooding are expected to increase by the end of this century, because of increasing storms and rising sea levels brought about by climate change. Protecting our coastal communities in traditional ways will become increasingly difficult and costly. This document provides an overview of the Shoreline Management Plan Review (SMP2) for the Isles of Scilly. This forms part of the larger Cornwall and Isles of Scilly SMP2 (extending from Rame Head on the south coast to Hartland Point in the north) and covers the five inhabited islands, St Mary’s, St Martin’s, Tresco, Bryher and St Agnes. Over the last two years the first SMPs for the Isles of Scilly and Cornwall have been reviewed and updated, using the latest knowledge and with wider consultation. The end result is an updated Shoreline Management Plan (SMP2). The purpose of this summary document is to firstly provide an overview of the SMP process and its objectives and secondly to highlight issues specific to the Isles of Scilly SMP area and the important conclusions.

  • Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study
    CORNWALL AND ISLES OF SCILLY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER STUDY Overview and Technical Report Final Report May 2007 Forward The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study 2005-2007 has been developed as a joint project between the local authorities in Cornwall, the National Trust and the AONB units of Cornwall, the Tamar Valley and the Isles of Scilly supported by the Countryside Agency (now Natural England). Diacono Associates in conjunction with White Consultants were appointed in 2005 to undertake a Landscape Character Assessment for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. This updates the Cornwall Landscape Assessment published in 1994. This report sets out the methodology by which Landscape Character Areas have been identified, based on Landscape Description Units, and brings together the main findings of the study including the initial consultation stages. Part of the study included an assessment of landscape sensitivity at the level of the Landscape Description Units. This aspect of the study is however to be the subject of further investigation and the findings set out in this report have not therefore been endorsed at this stage by the participating organisations. This report will form the basis of a number of areas of further research and investigation including landscape sensitivity, and seascape assessment as well as the further consultation on the draft Landscape Character Area Descriptions.

  • Frequently Asked Questions About Visiting the Isles of Scilly in Relation to COVID19 What Should I Think About When Visiting
    Frequently Asked Questions about Visiting the Isles of Scilly in relation to COVID19 We are delighted to welcome you to the Isles of Scilly and hope you have a lovely holiday experiencing our glorious beaches, clear blue water and excellent hospitality. We are a small island community, with limited infrastructure and health care services. Excellent as they are, there are only a few of us running them, so we need to make sure we protect our key workers for the benefit of both you and our local community. We understand that you are keen to have a holiday but please remember your individual responsibility to keep yourself and others safe whilst staying with us on Scilly. Please find some information below from the Council of the Isles of Scilly and our public health colleagues in response to frequently asked questions. If you have any queries please email [email protected] What should I think about when visiting the islands? Please consider the following; Travel by private transport on your mainland leg of the journey avoiding public transport. If you need to be evacuated, you will not be able to return home on public transport from Penzance. Travel accommodation providers will be asking you to carry your own luggage, so you might want to consider bringing more smaller items of luggage rather than one big heavy suitcase. Bring a face covering/mask - these are now mandatory on Skybus, Scillonian III and Penzance Helicopters, shuttle buses & boats. Bring some hand sanitiser, there will also be some hand sanitiser stations across the islands.

  • The Isles of Scilly 12Th – 20Th October 2017
    SANDWICH BAY BIRD OBSERVATORY HOLIDAYS The Isles of Scilly 12th – 20th October 2017 ‘The Scillonian’ approaching Hugh Town, St. Mary’s. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thursday October 12th and Friday October 13th: Sandwich Bay to the Scillies, via Penzance. The Observatory building was especially crowded this evening – a combination of the usual Thursday Club, topped up with all those of us bound for the Scillies. We got our bags loaded at about 9.30 p.m. and, ably driven by Steve and James, drove all the way down to Penzance, with just a couple of ‘comfort-stops’ at Membury and Exeter services. Most people got at least some sleep. Despite leaving 2 hours later than in October 2016, the traffic-free roads meant that we still managed to arrive at Penzance with over two hours to spare before we needed to board ‘The Scillonian’, so we sat in the coach as the dawn broke over Penzance Bay. Needless to say, the first birds of the trip were gulls, in this case Herring 1 Gulls, calling out over the Penzance roof-tops. When boarding time came, it was handled very efficiently by Jackie from The Steamship Company. We then assembled on the aft observation deck and waited until it was time to leave. The bird list soon started to grow, with Common Eider, Northern Gannet, Shag etc. around the harbour and a large juvenile Peregrine did a fly-through. Once on our way along the south coast of the Lands End peninsula, more sea-birds became apparent and between us we recorded Kittiwakes, Guillemots, and several skuas, some of which were certainly Arctic, but one looked different to me – slender, elegant and tern-like with a paler mantle than most skuas – a possible Long-tailed? Some in the group also got onto several Puffins.
