Are you passionate about capturing your Scilly adventures through photography? Then why not showcase your talents by participating in the official Isles of Scilly Annual Photography Competition? You might find yourself back on the islands sooner than you think!

This annual event celebrates the beauty of our small archipelago, from its natural landscapes and wildlife to its vibrant beach scenes and unforgettable experiences. We love seeing Scilly through your lens! Whether you're a photography enthusiast or a professional, whether you spend a day or a full staycation here in 2024, we invite you to share your most treasured memories with us.

You can enter up to five photos, with one fantastic opportunity to win a holiday to the islands. Finalists, selected by a panel of judges, will be subject to public vote on Facebook and Instagram, and the entry with the most votes will claim the grand prize!

The prize

The prize worth over £1,000 includes a 3-night break for two sharing a twin or double room at the sensational Hell Bay Hotel on the tiny island of Bryher on a bed and breakfast basis and return travel for two on board Penzance Helicopters from Penzance Heliport to either St. Mary’s or Tresco in the archipelago.

Here's what our 2023 winner Luke Hanna had to say:

"I am delighted to win the IOS 2023 Photo Competition, particularly given the exceptional quality of the other entries! I must also share credit with my 5-year-old daughter, Ottilie, who spent an idyllic afternoon collecting and arranging the razor clam shells then helping photograph them."
