On Water
With an entire archipelago to explore, life on Tresco is largely spent on, in and around the water...
From never having sailed at all, our three children finished a very enjoyable week's tuition at the Sailing Centre confident and eager to do more. The Ruin cafe's terrace was also perfectly situated to allow us to monitor their progress with glass in hand!
