Why not charter
the Upholder with your family and friends and see the wild life
That the Northumbrian coastline can offer. Trips can be tailored
to suit your own needs with the advantage of pre booking to avoid
the queues. Trips can be as short as one hour around Coquet island
to see the Grey Seals, and nesting birds such as terns,puffins,and
eider ducks. Coquet island is the most southerly nesting site of
the eider ducks. For those who would like to go further a field
and see puffins and gannets feeding in open water a coastal trip
is the answer, To have the chance of seeing other marine mammals
like dolphins porpoises and minky whales an offshore trip is your
only chance.
Take
in the Northumbrian coast line and see villages like Alnmouth, Boulmer,
Howick and Craster, and Dunstanburgh Castle. Depending on the time
of the year the spectacular scene of diving Gannets feeding on mackerel
and sand eels can be almost certainly guaranteed. For the last eight
years common black and white Dolphins have been seen regularly in
late July and early august along with the occasional minky whale.
When the Dolphins are in they Just can not help themselves from
playing with the boat and will go out of there way to ride on the
bow wave of the boat. On one occasion there were two 35 foot minky
whales one on each side of the boat enjoying the wash off the boat.
