SORRY THIS TRIP IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. INNER FARNE AND STAPLE ISLAND ARE CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC DUE TO AVIAN FLU CONCERNS. WHY NOT TRY OUR HOLY ISLAND CRUISE INSTEAD
This Farne Islands tour lands on the fantastic diverse wildlife habitat of Inner Farne where St Cuthbert spent the latter part of his life and died there in 687AD. It is the largest of the Farne Islands and the most accessible. It is ideal for bird watchers and wildlife photographers, you can get incredibly close to thousands upon thousands of breeding birds! Remember to bring a hat during the spring and summer breeding season! This tour takes approximately 2.5 – 3 hours, with a sail around all the islands first then a 1-hour landing on Inner Farne.
Landings on Staple and Inner Farne are subject to Avian Flu with the National Trust monitoring the situation in April. Customers will be notified in advance if the islands are closed during their planned visit and alternatives offered.
