What visitors say
My partner and I cruised out to Coquette at the tail end of Puffin season on the eve of getting engaged! Everything about Puffin Cruises was lovely, from booking to disembarking. We saw about 10 puffins, including a group of 4 that flew towards the boat. And the seals! There were so many, all playful and curious about the boat. Steve’s narration was really informative, and the crew were friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back!

We had a great trip out to Coquet Island in April. The weather was amazing, so clear and calm. Not as far out as Farne Islands, nice short trip. Family of 4 with teenage kids and they both enjoyed it. We saw plenty of grey seals, in the water and lounging on the island. It was slightly early for puffins but we saw a couple. The skipper was great, explaining the history and the various birds. He ensured to turn the boat so everyone could see well and take plenty of photos. Highly recommended if in the area.

Really great trip with good views of wildlife (birds and seals), excellent commentary on the wildlife and history of the island. The boat stopped a number of times to enable better views. Highly recommend this trip.

Went on a Saturday for the first slot at 10 Am. Rang up the previous day to book and paid in person at the ticket office. The boat ride was great, plenty of photo opportunities. Best suited for those with a zoom lens as I found out. I would go again.
