A camp site is situated on the Garrison. There are many ancient monuments to be discovered on the island from a megalithic village and tombs to Civil War fortifications. The small museum in Hugh Town and the Heritage Centre in the middle of the island, display much of Scilly's rich history. In the evenings the visitor may enjoy the slide shows, variety concerts and plays from both the resident organisations and from touring companies, and no holiday would be complete without watching the exciting and colourful gig racing between the islands that take place on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Sports enthusiasts are certainly not forgotten on St. Mary's.
Visitors are' also welcome to join in the cricket matches with the other islands.
Islands provide natural attractions for artists and craftsmen and St. Mary's is no exception with many studios dotted about the island producing high quality pottery, paintings and crafts. St. Mary's offers everything a visitor would require to enjoy a lifetime of holidays. Tresco Tresco Estate has its own website which will tell you everything. St. Martin's St. Martin's is the third largest of the islands and is the first land you see, with the distinguishing Daymark, when crossing from the Mainland by sea or air. For the visitor who wants a quiet holiday we have much to offer.
