RSPB Puffin and Diving Gannet Seabird Cruises 2025

The towering cliffs at Bempton, part of Yorkshire's stunning heritage coast, come alive each year with almost half a million seabirds including the iconic Puffin and the UK's largest seabird the Gannet. Sailing towards the end of July is a chance to see the colony from below, get nose-to-beak with the stars of the show and be treated to Diving Gannets around the boat too.

Sailing from Bridlington Harbour with the RSPB aboard the famous MV Yorkshire Belle is chance to see the colony from below. Enjoy a three-hour journey of discovery to Bempton's 400-foot chalk cliffs as seabirds swoop, soar and circle the boat. RSPB volunteers are on hand to identify what's what and the on-board commentary gives a unique insight into the seabird spectacle. For nature lovers of all ages, this is the stuff that memories are made of.

The beautiful Yorkshire Belle is the last of the great pleasure cruisers.  She has indoor and outdoor seating, toilet facilities, and drinks and snacks are available from the bar.

Suitable for adults and families and, to make your experience more exclusive and comfortable, we will be sailing with fewer passengers on board than pre-Covid.

Early booking is essential as these cruises do sell out very quickly.
