JUNE … When Skomer is full of life!

Are you planning a visit in June? What can you expect to see?
Well, June is the month where the birds are busy raising their chicks, So, look out for puffins returning to their burrows with beaks full of fish to feed their hungry little ones.
It’s also a great time to spot guillemot, razorbill, kittiwake and fulmar chicks on the cliffs.

The summer months fill up fast so please do book ahead to avoid disappointment.

Bookings open - 1/12/24

APRIL - What can you expect to see when you visit us in April?

April is a great time to visit as seabirds start to return to the island. Look out for razorbills and guillemots courting on the cliffs. You may spot puffins out at sea or on the island as they begin to return for the season.

And remember, day trip booking open on the 1st of December.

After an unseasonably rough start to the season, we finally have a few days break in the weather and are back up and running to Skomer Island.

Can we tell you who doesn’t seem bothered by the weather … the Puffins!!

With huge numbers of Puffins on the island, on the water and in the air, the early season numbers are looking incredibly strong. We even have birds already on eggs! 😨 🤯

We still have plenty of spaces available for our Skomer Landings over the next couple of weeks, the perfect time to visit the Island before the main season rush!

MEET THE TEAM 🐦

Meet Tonto
Age:  Unknown
Role:  Gull

Before we introduce you to any more of the human members of our team, we thought it only right that the real star of the show got a mention.

Enter Tonto.

For the past few years, Tonto has been getting more and more comfortable with our boats and team, and his journey has been a fantastic one to watch.

Tonto began following us from Martin's Haven over to Skomer on the odd occasion, looking for the odd scrap sandwich. These days, however, Tonto joins our crew on almost every crossing. He's even been known to chip in on the commentary every now and again!

Jim and Tonto have become very good friends, and recently, Jim has even managed to teach Tonto to land on his shoulder!

Favourite vessel:
The Dale Queen (or any vessel with Jim aboard)

Favourite seat:
On your head, well, to be particular on your hat.
If Tonto is on board and you're wearing head wear...you might just become his favourite seat of the day.

If you're lucky enough to have Tonto on board, make sure you take a snap and tag us...we love watching this beautiful gull's hilarious personality.


(Please be aware that all treats fed to Tonto are recommended snack options that are safe for gulls. The safety and well-being of wildlife is our number one priority.)

Maximus giving us those mid week vibes ✌🏼🦭 … One of our favourite games at the end of the day is attempting to claim back our tender. Over time, Maximus has decided that our tender is now his new fave sleeping/sunbathing spot … (and we feel this may be an ongoing game for some time 🧐) So, keep your eyes peeled & stay tuned for regular Maximus updates as he is now a part of our extended family 🦭 Tontos’ got competition. 👀 🎥- Skipper Gareth Reynolds

NEW to Pembrokeshire Islands … DOLPHIN RACING! Only joking 🙃 but we are not joking about how many Common Dolphins joined us on our evening Seabird Spectacular last night. Don’t forget to take a peep over the side when cruising with us but please be responsible.🐬😍
