What you’ll find on St. Agnes is peace and tranquillity – in spades! But if you’re after some fun on the water, you can hire some kayaks and SUPs (just beyond the island’s church) for an explore of the quieter coves and beaches too. Walk the island in a day – and discover the natural breeding grounds of the Greater and Lesser Black Backed Gulls. St. Agnes and nearby Annet is a great place to spot seabirds of all varieties (including puffins in May and June). Head over to Gugh at low tide to see the Bronze Age Obadiah’s Barrow, or walk onto Wingletang Bay and Beady Pool – a wild swim in the sheltered bay here is fantastic or simply beachcomb for some shipwrecked venetian glass beads.
