30 minute short trip to see the amazing puffins on Craigleith
A 30-minute catamaran boat trip around Craigleith island. This stable 55 passenger vessel was custom built in 2012 to provide a family-friendly Bass Rock boat experience. This trip takes you around Craigleith where you will learn about and spot the amazing seabird species that breed there (including almost 10,000 Puffins!). Keep a look out for Seals too (and even Dolphins - we are seeing more of these amazing mammals who sometimes race along beside the boat on our trips). This is a fantastic trip for all ages, including well-behaved dogs.
As with all boat trips, the weather out on the sea is usually a bit colder than on the land, so make sure to wrap up warm. A waterproof jacket is always handy too (especially in Scotland!).
Due to the design of the boat, the historic harbour, and maritime safety regulations, we are unable to carry passengers in wheelchairs. Our crew are, however, willing to help wherever possible to assist you in boarding the vessel; but depending on the tide level, this can involve climbing and descending several steep stairs. All passengers must be comfortable doing this. If in any doubt, please contact our boat office before making your booking and we can provide more information.
