Lundy Island

26 miles due south of Caldey Island, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Bristol Channel with nothing between it and America. A granite outcrop, three miles long and half a mile wide.

Home to many, many oceanic birds including a thriving Puffin colony (April – July). Seals galore and a very high chance of at least one Dolphin encounter on the approximately one hour passage.

The Trip

This offshore passage is pricey and wildlife or flat calm isn’t guaranteed. However – if you’re up for an adventure, this one has the potential to surpass all expectations.

We leave Tenby Harbour full of anticipation of what lies ahead, knowing what an amazing experience this can be. We enjoy sharing this with our customers and do our utmost to make the trip a highlight of the year.

In short – we love it!

Landing on Lundy

Lundy Beach

Having explored the west side of the island where the Puffins burrow, we duck under the south and land on the east where you’ll step into another world – Climb the old lighthouse and stand where the light once shone, looking out onto the Atlantic Horizon. Find the smugglers caves and hear tales of Barbary piracy. Why are there 3 lighthouses on such a small island? It’s a captivating and intriguing place with much to explore.

The Pub

Lundy Pub

The celebrated Marisco Tavern serves up excellent food; walls are adorned with tangible relics, flotsam and jetsam.

What to bring

The boat is open to keep passengers better connected to the wildlife. Warm clothes, bring more than you think you should for the run home. Waterproof/ windproof, sun glasses/ cream etc. A face buff/ scarf to keep wind off face is a good idea. If you have a dryrobe or equivalent, bring it.
You can leave valuable things securely locked on the boat whilst you’re on the island.
