Visit unspoilt islands in this ultimate tour for wildlife and natural history lovers. A fantastic array of birds can be spotted, including razorbills, guillemots, fulmars, storm petrels, kittiwakes, herring gulls, and shags – not forgetting the star attraction of the much-loved Puffin colony.  As we sail there is also an abundance of marine wildlife to spot including seals, dolphins, porpoises and even whales! 

You will depart from Oban Ferry Terminal on the CalMac ferry to Craignure, Mull. Then, travel by coach to Fionnphort via Glen More and the south shore of Loch Scridain. From Fionnphort you will take a boat trip to discover the islands’ abundant wildlife. This includes time ashore on Staffa, Lunga and Iona.
