Important note regarding Isle of Scilly excursion: We recommend you take suitable clothing and footwear as the weather is changeable. The exact duration of your journey will depend on the tides and weather, but it usually takes between 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours. As the ship makes its way into the Atlantic, it passes a point where several ocean currents meet, so the sea can occasionally get choppy. As with any sea crossing, it might be a good idea to bring some medication with you if you’re often prone to motion sickness (there isn't any kept on board the ship). The sailing to the Isles of Scilly is subject to weather conditions and an alternative excursion may be offered.
