I thought it was time that the Isles of Scilly featured on the Opencaching map. Goodness knows who'll get FTF but if any Opencachers visit the islands at least they'll have something to hunt.

This first Virtual takes you to the Compass Rose set into the wall at Hugh Town. There are plenty of benches where you can sit, eat your pasty or lick an icecream and, if you time it right, watch the Scillonian ferry boat arriving at the the quay at the end of its journey from Penzance.

 

To log this cache: From the compass rose, turn around and look across the road at the line of cottages. One has a slightly fruity sounding name - The first word of its name is your password.
