We set off at 9:30 on the 'Glad Tidings IV'. It was a about 30 minutes to the nearest island. I knew that there was going to be lots of birds but my vision was a real underestimate.
We were shown around a number of islands before landing on Staple Island and on the way we were shown a grey seal colony. We stayed on Staple Island for about 2 hours, walking amongst the birds.
We then left Staple Island and sailed off to Inner Farne Island where we stayed for another hour.
Both Islands are National Trust.
