Island life centres on harbours, lifeboat stations and the RNLI, with regattas and fetes in summer. Summer brings long daylight hours and crowded ferries, while winter sailings are often cancelled by weather, which shapes travel plans. Standing stones, brochs and early Christian chapels survive on many British islands, adding historic interest to a stay. Grey seals breed around British island coasts, and basking sharks appear in summer surface waters.
