Took a Farne Islands cruise (1.5) and we really enjoyed it. Great to get out there and meet the birds and the seals up close. We had a boat that wasn’t too busy and we had plenty of space and for a lot of the time we had the full attention of the skipper’s mate, I think his name was Aaron or Aran, who was really knowledgeable and gave us all the info as we cruised around the islands, super friendly, local knowledge and really helpful. Was money well spent and thanks to the skipper and his mate for a really enjoyable trip. 5 stars easily.

I recently did the Grey Seal & Seabird Cruise and also the sunset Cruise on the same day. Both cruises were fantastic and the crew were excellent. I was lucky enough to see some wildlife up close thanks to the crew who know all the good spots look in and also lucky with the weather for the sunset cruise. I would highly recommend Serenity Farne Island Boat Tours and I look forward to my next cruise with them.

We did the 90 minute tour around the islands - well organised & the crew onboard were friendly & helpful. Plenty of room on the boat. We did the 2.15pm sailing on a Thursday in August. The whole family - two adults, two teens & one dog enjoyed the trip & learning about the seals & sea birds. It was also interesting to hear about the history of the islands, particularly about Grace Darling & to see the light house where she lived & where the famous rescue took place. Beautiful views of Bamburgh Castle & the coast.

What a brilliant trip! The crew were amazing - informative, friendly and ready to answer any questions. The boat was spacious and comfortable with plenty of room to move around. Wherever you sat or stood - you had a view - it was perfect. And on this particular trip as well as sailing around the Farne Islands and seeing the abundant bird life and seals - we were treated to dolphins at the end of the trip as we were coming back into the harbour. But instead of going back - the captain Jimmy kept the boat out for an extra half hour so we could watch them. Simply magical and thank you so much for going that extra nautical mile! We would highly recommend Serenity and will definitely sail with them again.

We joined the afternoon landing tour with Serenity and had an absolutely wonderful experience! The captain and crew were incredibly friendly and welcoming. One of the crew members walked around the boat to give informative commentary, so no matter where you were seated, you wouldn’t miss anything. The captain also made sure to turn the boat so that everyone on either side had a good view of the adorable seabirds up close. We had about an hour on the island, which was packed with excitement, so many puffins everywhere! It was also nesting season for the terns, and they were very protective of their eggs. Some nests were right next to the paths, so it’s hard to avoid them, I’d highly recommend wearing a hat, as the terns may dive at you to protect their nests. Even though the weather forecast said no rain, a sudden rain cloud passed over us, so a raincoat and waterproof gear for your camera are definitely a good idea. Overall, we had such a lovely afternoon, it was absolutely worth it and a memorable experience!
