Why it's Wildland

5.7

A short sea trip from Beaumaris brings you to the waters around Puffin Island, where seabirds and grey seals can be seen in their natural habitat; bottlenose dolphins are a possibility, not a guarantee.

This is a boat-based way to experience Anglesey’s coastal wildlife, with the chance to see seabirds and grey seals around Puffin Island. Its appeal is the wildlife encounter from the water rather than a guaranteed species sighting.
