British islands see rain throughout the year, and Atlantic gales are common in autumn and winter, so a coat is worth carrying. Summer brings long daylight hours and crowded ferries, while winter sailings are often cancelled by weather. Island life centres on harbours, lifeboat stations and the RNLI, with regattas and fetes in summer, and British islands range from low chalk and sandstone to rugged sea cliffs cut by glacial erosion.
