What Can I Expect

Buy your vouchers for your Pembrokeshire boat trips! Set sail for tours around Ramsey Island or Skomer Island to discover this most beautiful part of the world off the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales.

These boat trips depart from St Justinian's, the former RNLI lifeboat station on the coast just beyond the hamlet of Rhosson. We are offering one-hour trips around Ramsey Island and two-hour trips around Skomer Island.

The natural beauty of the surroundings will take your breath away. It is simply stunning. A magnificent coastline that is relatively untouched, with cliffs jutting out into vibrant waters providing habitats for an array of wildlife.

And indeed, this is what people come to the Pembrokeshire coast for. During these boat trips you will (hopefully!) see porpoises and seals. Keep an eye for them on the rocks, where they love to sunbathe. And if they are swimming in the sea next to you, savour that special moment.

Then there are the Puffins. Skomer Island is home to over 40,000 Puffins (yes, you read that right!) and hundreds of thousands of seabirds, in particular the Manx Shearwaters. It really is a sight to behold.

The crew on your boat knows these waters like the proverbial backs of their hands, so they know where to take you for the best sights. They also know how important it is to protect the wildlife, so tours are done with utmost respect for the Pembrokeshire flora and fauna.

As well as seeing a lot, you will also learn a lot. There's the history of Skomer and Ramsey Islands, the archeology and lots of local legends and anecdotes too. You will be fascinated and entertained the full length of the tour!

Whether you choose to see Ramsey Island or Skomer Island, these Pembrokeshire boat trips in RIB boats are the best. Great crew, great hosting and great sights to see!
