Britain's most-visitable islands
Skye, Mull, Anglesey, the Scillies, the Channel Islands — fifteen islands worth the ferry.
Around 6,000 islands sit off the British coast. Some are essentially extensions of the mainland by bridge or causeway; others involve a serious ferry. These fifteen are the most visit-worthy — each has road access, accommodation, and at least a day's worth of itinerary.
