Being Scilly: Isles of Scilly 2024


  • St. Mary's, Isles of Scilly TR21 0HU (map)

A multi-activity outdoors adventure week on the Scillies

Being Scilly is a week-long multi-activity island holiday, all about having fun doing adventurous activities in a supportive, light-hearted and empowering way. With all activities led by women for women, in an inclusive atmosphere, this is an opportunity to learn from local outdoors experts and immerse yourself in the culture, nature and landscape of this stunning archipelago.

Group activities include walking, swimming, cycling, boat trips, yoga, kayaking, snorkeling with seals, gin-making and a comedy workshop as well as guided tours around the islands and optional evening activities. Free time can be spent relaxing and exploring the islands.

The focus of this team adventure is simply on ‘being’, however you are. The pace of life on the Scillies is very slow and peaceful. Locals exhort us busy mainlanders to ‘Be more Scilly’; just go with the flow and take your time! Inspired by this mantra, this holiday is all about being yourself, taking it easy and knowing that you’re good enough, exactly as you are. All the outdoor activities are approached from this perspective. We’re just showing up, having a go and enjoying being exactly as we are.
