Pupping season begins
Today we not only saw the 1st seal pup on the rocks but we also spotted a 2nd one. Finally the seal season is underway and lets hope it's another good one like last year. A few weeks ago my brother spotted one on the Longstone Island but unfortunately it had pasted away, which was such a crying shame as [...]
Little and Large
Over the years I have seen the Great Skua beating up seabirds for their food and I have heard stories about the picking on other seabirds no matter what size, but I have never witnessed it myself until the other day when I spotted a Great Skua on the water then all of a sudden it launched itself into the [...]
Sunset Cruise 2017
We have now finally had our last sunset cruise for the season and boy was it a beauty. We had finished a week ago but the weather was not the best so when we saw the forecast for Tuesday we decided to give it another go and hopefully we will finish with a bang. This season has been very mixed [...]
Booze Cruise
We did a booze cruise for the locals a few weeks ago and it was a lovely evening for it too. We went up to Holy Island and we were there for two hours and then returned to Seahouses. After the day we had it was the perfect ending to the day. We would love it if you would subscribe [...]
A whale of a time
During our Inner Farne landing trip at lunchtime we were on our way to land when out the corner of his eye Andy saw a Minkie Whale. I quickly stopped the boat and ran onto the deck but it was gone. Typical, and by then all the guests were getting excited too. Not saying that I was not excited as [...]
That’s it for another season
Where has this breeding season gone. It seems to only a few weeks ago since we were getting the boats ready for the start of the season and now the end is in sight. I know we still have a few months to go and all the seal pups will be arriving but I just can't get over how quickly [...]
The end is near
We are nearly at the end of the breeding season and to be honest I just don't know where it has gone to. The season has been a bit mixed but overall I think its not been bad at all but when the rangers finish crunching numbers we will know for sure. Judging by what we see everyday I think [...]

Nature is Cruel
Mother nature is very cruel at times and we hardly get bad weather during the summer so when we get big tides combined with strong N.E. winds you just know its all going to go pear shaped. About 2 weeks ago all the Kittiwakes that were doing so well have gone and only the ones further up the cliff faces [...]
Crazy amount of dolphins and crazy weather
We have updated our vlog and this time its all about the dolphins.We have seen loads of Bottlenose Dolphins this year and at one stage we were seeing them nearly every other day. While I write this blog its been about 12 days since we last saw them so we are due a sighting soon I would say. We hope [...]
