WHAT YOU VISIT
Noss Seabirds & Seals by Speedboat
Fondly called "seabird city," the remote Noss Island Nature Reserve is a designated National Nature Reserve. Covering over 300 hectares (741 acres) of moorland and grassy slopes, the uninhabited isle is renowned as one of Europe's finest wildlife sites. Get excitingly close to the awe-inspiring sights from aboard the Stormforce, a specially designed speedboat that allows you to sit almost eye-level to the water. Hang on as you zip over the water and get up close to the islands' 25,000 gannets, thousands of guillemots and hundreds of puffins, razorbills, black guillemots, gulls, shags and skuas.
PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Porpoises, whales, otters and dolphins may make an appearance and you will almost certainly get close to grey seals and harbor seals.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
The Stormforce will make its way along the coastline of the island of Bressay. Weather permitting, you'll sail close to the Orkneyman cave and see the magnificent rock arch of the Giant's Leg.
