Your Guide to the Farne Islands


One of the Country's most important and beautiful bird sanctuaries lies just a few miles off the coast of Northumberland. The Farne Islands are home to over 100,000 pairs of birds in the mating season from May to July and up to 6,000 Seals in their breeding season in late Autumn. The Islands also have an amazing history, it was the home of St Cuthbert from 678AD and is also the home of the legend of Grace Darling. Boat trips leave from the fishing port of Seahouses all year round to this fascinating place, and now you can read all about it in your guide to the Farne Islands HERE at Your Northumberland Guide.
