Knowing exactly where the puffin colonies gathered, the founders swapped commercial fishing for small-group RIB boat adventures, sailing among towering cliffs and captivating wildlife. They take you close enough to the puffins to look them in the eye, and if you are lucky they fly alongside the boat. Operating during puffin season, May through August.
