点评:This is a really well organized and professionally run experience. Bold Coast did a great job communicating and providing detail about when we would depart. It's weather dependent, which is no small thing in Maine. Fortunately tides gave us a 9 AM departure and smooth seas over. The boat is clean and well kept, with a boat toilet available for use (immaculate). One hour ride over, and we hopped into the skiff for a short ride to the Island. The crew carefully guides you along approved walkways to your blind (which is about 4-5 people in each). You rotate to various windows in the blind and can get hundreds of amazing photos of not only puffins (which let's be honest are the STAR) but other cool birds such as razorbills, bridled and regular murres, arctic terns, and on the day we were there some Northern Gannets which are gorgeous. We got lucky and spotted one puffling (baby puffin) in a burrow as well. The crew were safety conscious, professional, and kind - taking time to answer all questions and looking for cool things to point out - we had a large group of seals playing near our boat for quite a while as wel departed. Tours are small and sell out - so you need to be ON IT when they go on sale. So glad we did this!
翻译:这是一次组织有序、专业运营的体验。Bold Coast 在沟通和提供我们出发时间的详细信息方面做得非常出色。出发时间取决于天气,这在缅因州可不是小事。幸运的是,潮汐让我们可以在早上 9 点出发,海面平静。船很干净,保养得很好,船上有厕所可供使用(一尘不染)。一个小时的航程结束后,我们跳上小艇,短暂的旅程就到了岛。船员们小心翼翼地引导你沿着批准的走道到达你的隐蔽处(每个隐蔽处大约可容纳 4-5 人)。你可以在隐蔽处的不同窗户之间旋转,这样可以拍到数百张令人惊叹的照片,不仅有海鹦(老实说,它们才是明星),还有其他很酷的鸟类,比如刀嘴海雀、趺藜海鸠和普通海鸠、北极燕鸥,我们去的那天还看到了一些漂亮的北方塘鹅。我们很幸运,还在洞穴里发现了一只小海鹦(海鹦宝宝)。船员们安全意识强,专业又友善——他们耐心解答所有问题,还会发现一些有趣的地方值得指点——我们出发时,一大群海豹在我们船边嬉戏了好一会儿。行程规模小,而且门票已经售罄——所以开售时一定要注意。很高兴我们参加了这次旅行!
