Isle of May Landing – Wildlife & History Tour

Isle of May Landing – Wildlife & History Tour
Explore internationally famous bird habitats, see remote historic Scotland, impressive lighthouses, and magnificent volcanic cliffs and caves, search for dolphins or porpoises as they return to feed their young.
It’s a time of great change at the Isle of May. The cliff-dwelling birds have left, a few puffins will remain into late July (or even the first few days of August) and it’s the season for migrating birds, waders and seals to visit the isle. It’s a time to marvel at the rich and varied history.
This scenic 6-hour day tour sails around the Bass Rock where gannets are busy attending to their ‘guga’ chicks and then to the Isle of May where you land for 3 hours.
