CRUISE/TRIP-SPECIFIC INFORMATION
Wildlife & Sightseeing Cruises: Please remember that the birds and animals are wild and we have no control over whether they will make an appearance. Whilst we do what we can to make sure you see as much of the wildlife as possible, we cannot guarantee what you will be able to see on any trip. Some of the bird species on Puffin Island are migratory and only come to land to breed therefore what you see during your visit depends on when you join us.

All trips: trip times can change for a few reasons so remember to confirm the departure time with us beforehand and please allow sufficient time before your trip to collect your tickets from our booking kiosk. You are strongly advised to dress appropriately and wear suitable footwear for your trip as it's often cooler out at sea and powerboat trips can, by nature be wet.
