The Scottish Seabird Centre operates boat trips to see the spectacular Forth Islands and their amazing wildlife: These trips are very popular and early booking is stongly advised by calling +44 (0) 1620 890202 or by email at info@seabird.org. Our boats are also available for private trips - please contact us for more information. See details of where we are and how to get here.
You will be accompanied on your trip by an experienced wildlife guide. As members of Wild Scotland and WiSE, the Seabird Centre follows a careful wildlife watching code that allows a wonderful experience for visitors, without disturbing the animals. The Scottish Seabird Centre is a charity and income from our boat trips supports our conservation and education work. There are three popular boat trips to choose from:
1. One hour Seabird Seafari RIB trips to Craigleith and around the Bass Rock daily (numbers and weather permitting) from North Berwick. 2. Three and a half hour Seabird Seafari RIB trips to the Isle of May National Nature Reserve, with at least two hours ashore 3. Exclusive Bass Rock Landing Trips with fishing boat 'Fisher Lassie' from Dunbar Harbour (five and a half hours).
In addition, we can also cater for private groups which costs £275 for the first hour and £150 per hour thereafter. The price for all trips includes waterproofs and an experienced guide.
Why not make it a day to remember and get your photograph taken professionally on Seabird Seafari trips? See the gallery and ask for more details at the booking office.
Details of each of the three public trips are shown below:
Leaving from North Berwick Harbour, this round trip takes an hour. Our new rigid inflatable boats quickly whisk you out to the islands to allow you to enjoy lots of time observing the wildlife. You will slowly cruise around the island of Craigleith, home to our SOS Puffin project, and the famous Bass Rock, described by Sir David Attenborough as "one of the twelve wildlife wonders of the world" and the largest single island gannet colony in the world (over 150,000 gannets). 
The trips are fast and waterproofs are provided. The minimum age for children is eight. The price is £22 for adults and £17 for children (less 10% discount for members of the Seabird Centre). Income from the Seabird Seafari trips supports the SOS Puffin project. Due to their popularity, trips book up quickly and advance booking is recommended by calling +44 (0) 1620 890202. Please note, tickets for these trips cannot be purchased online. You can also hire a set of binoculars, in advance, for your trip at a cost of £3.
