Experience the Best of Boat Tours in the UK with Us

If you’re looking to explore the beauty of the UK’s coastal waters, Billy Shiel Farne Island Boats Limited offers an unforgettable experience with a range of boat tours around the Farne Islands. One of our most popular tours at the moment is the Sunset Cruise, a perfect way to unwind and enjoy the serene beauty of the islands as the day comes to an end.

The Enchanting Sunset Cruise

The Sunset Cruise around the Farne Islands is a spectacular way to witness nature’s wonders. During the breeding season from May to the end of July, the Farne Islands become a haven for thousands of nesting birds. You’ll have the chance to see Puffins, Guillemots, Terns, Kittiwakes, Shags, and Cormorants in their natural habitat. This vibrant display of birdlife is a highlight for nature enthusiasts and photographers alike.

Meet the Grey Seals

The Farne Islands are also home to an impressive colony of Grey Seals. It’s estimated that there are between 3,000 to 4,000 Grey Seals around the islands, and they can often be seen basking on the rocks, especially at low tide when more of the islands are exposed. Each autumn, over a thousand seal pups are born, adding to the growing colony and offering visitors a charming sight.

After touring the Farne Islands, the Sunset Cruise continues along the beautiful coastline. As the sun sets, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the sun dipping behind the magnificent Bamburgh Castle. The tranquil waters and the stunning backdrop create a picturesque scene that is perfect for relaxation and reflection. Occasionally, you might even be greeted by playful dolphins, adding a magical touch to the experience.
