Life On The Isles Of Scilly - Britain's Most South Westerly Islands

ISLES OF SCILLY, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 16: Sullivan Bennett picks Soleil d'Or flowers to be sold on the mainland at Borough Farm on St Mary's on February 16, 2017 on the Isles of Scilly, England. The Isles of Scilly are an archipelago of five main inhabited islands located 28 miles off the south western tip of the Cornish peninsula making them the southernmost part of the United Kingdom. The Scillies have a population of just over 2,200 and most of the real estate is owned by the Duchy of Cornwall. The climate is much warmer than mainland Britain giving rise to the tourist industry which accounts for 85% of the islands income with guests arriving by small plane from Cornwall or passenger ferry from Penzance, and also a successful flower-growing industry.
