Wildlife & the sights!
Wildlife & the sights!
On your Inchcolm Island Cruise look out for the marine wildlife including many seabirds, seals, puffins, and watch out for the occasional porpoise.
Enjoy the sea breeze and views from the outside decks. If the weather is less inviting, the observation lounge has fantastic views. A guided commentary means you won’t miss a thing wherever you sit. And, of course, you will get to see the Three Bridges as you have never seen them before.
