Purbeck Puffin & Seabird Cruises 2022
Details
This summer, we’re hosting eight Puffin & Seabird Cruises along the Purbeck coast. Not known for its breeding seabirds, this stretch of the Jurassic Coast supports a small, fragile colony of Puffins, along with larger numbers of nesting Guillemot and Razorbill. Our three-hour cruise will see us depart from Poole Quay on an evening charter, leaving the harbour mouth behind, heading south down the coast to Dancing Ledge in search of auks as they settle on the water to preen before returning to the cliff ledges. Join us to learn all about this dramatic coastline, its history and the birdlife it supports, then on the return journey we’ll hopefully time our arrival back into the harbour so that the early summer sunset draws a perfect ending to our trip.
IMPORTANT: Please note, these trips are weather dependent. If winds are too strong, we will not be able to leave the harbour for safety reasons. Although every effort will be made to visit the puffin colony, if the ferry company decides that adverse weather conditions will prevent us from running then the trip will be cancelled and an alternative back-up date will be offered based on predicted weather forecasts. A full refund will be available if you’re unable to attend the rescheduled trip.
