Bishops Boats Seal Trips

Bishops Boats Seal Trips A one hour boat trip to see the seals on Blakeney Point. Running from April to the end of October. Book ONLINE or call 01263 740753

BISHOP’S BOATS have been running seal watching trips departing from the picturesque Blakeney harbour and Morston quay since the early 1960’s. This family run business has two traditional purpose built clinker construction wooden boats and one smaller boat. Our boats wind their way down the creek before heading out into sheltered waters and onto the far end of Blakeney Point. Without going out into

the open sea, our experienced skipper’s take you to known areas frequented by seals. However, we ask that you appreciate that we do not control, or attempt to influence their natural behaviour or habitat in order to see them (see our guarantee†). You may observe both common and grey seals from the boats, which are able to get close to the basking seals near the water’s edge. Our knowledgeable crew will tell you all about the seals and the area. There are many species of birds to be seen too, including a large tern colony well established on Blakeney Point. All trips are seal-watching trips lasting approximately 1hr. The best vantage point for the seal and tern colony is from the boats, as we are able to get quite close to the shore without causing any disturbance to the wildlife.

It was a lovely day out on the water.
