Noss Seabirds & Seals by Speedboat
Moderate Activity
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
Hop onboard the 'Stormforce' - a specially designed speedboat that allows you to sit almost eye-level to the water and operates a carbon neutral status to help protect the wildlife you hope to view.
Our Seabirds and Seals excursion takes you really close up to the 25,000 gannets, thousands of guillemots and hundreds of puffins, razorbills, black guillemots, gulls, shags and skuas at Noss National Nature Reserve. Along the way you'll discover the fascinating coastline of the island of Bressay. The route changes each day, depending on the wind speed and direction to ensure we take the most sheltered water. Weather permitting, you'll sail close to the Orkneyman cave and see the magnificent rock arch of the Giant's Leg.
Porpoises, whales, otters and dolphins occasionally make an appearance and you will almost certainly get close to some grey seals and harbour seals.
