Scottish Seabird Centre的点评
点评:Seabird Catamaran Cruise with the Scottish Seabird Centre - visiting the islands of Craigleith & Bass Rock.
Excellent seabird tour. Birds seen were puffins, guillemots, razorbills, Northern Gannets, Kittiwakes & other gulls.
Good length of trip at 1hr 15 mins from boarding to disembarking. Kat (crew) & Selby (skipper) were the centre staff taking us out & did a fantastic job. Kat is very knowledgeable about the birds we were seeing as well as making a point to travel around the boat to talk to visitors. Selby got us very close to Bass Rock to see the gannets up close & was great at safely navigating the boat.
The information on the tour was very interesting but be advised if you have trouble hearing over background noise, I’d sit a little closer to the front as the engine noise & wake at the back of the boat may be a little challenging.
My goal for this tour was to see puffins in the wild - which we saw- but I was equally as impressed with the Northern Gannet colony & very glad we made the decision to go!
Other info - toilets available at the seabird centre & harbour - there is one on the boat but we were told it was a very tiny space. Cafe & shop in the seabird centre as well as the paid seabird discovery centre (which we didn’t have time to do).
Overall - EXCELLENT trip & highly recommend
翻译:苏格兰海鸟中心组织的观鸟双体船之旅——游览克雷格利斯岛和巴斯岩。
这是一次非常棒的海鸟之旅。我们看到了海鹦、普通海鸠、刀嘴海雀、北方塘鹅、三趾鸥和其他海鸥。
行程时长适中,从登船到下船仅需1小时15分钟。船员Kat和船长Selby是中心的工作人员,他们带领我们出海,服务非常出色。Kat对我们看到的鸟类非常了解,并且会特意在船上走动与游客交流。Selby带我们靠近巴斯岩,让我们近距离观察塘鹅,他驾驶船只也非常安全。
游览讲解非常有趣,但如果您听力有障碍,建议您坐在船头附近,因为船尾的发动机噪音和尾流可能会有些影响您的听觉。
我这次旅行的目标是观赏野生海鹦——我们确实看到了——但北方塘鹅群落同样让我印象深刻,非常庆幸我们做了这次旅行的决定!
其他信息——海鸟中心和港口都有洗手间——船上也有一个,但据说空间非常小。海鸟中心内有咖啡馆和商店,还有一个收费的海鸟探索中心(我们没有时间去参观)。
总而言之——非常棒的旅行,强烈推荐!
