点评:We went on the 5pm boat in the first week of August. Two adults and 1 child, £55 in total. My only negative comment is that it costs £15 for all children. Our daughter is only 3 so didn't get a lot out of the trip but still cost us £15.
BUT, I understand the pricing as we were in Amble all day and the earlier boats were full and ours was fairly busy. They could easily sell the seat to an adult. Anyway, advice is to book early in peak season. Tickets can be bought from the pod in Harbour Village.
Boat was clean, well looked after and felt perfectly safe. Staff on the boat were polite and helpful, but customer service maybe isn't their strong point. No complaints, but service was functional not excellent.
Trip was exactly as described, just over an hour trip round Coquet Island and back. GREAT for seal watching, saw loads and really close up. I've been on a lot of seal watching trips and this was easily the best in terms of what we saw.
Plenty of terns to spot on the island, but you really need binoculars to get a good a view. We saw one single puffin, which was very special. Puffin season is usually finished by August, so don't go any later than mid July and expect to see them.
Overall perfectly happy with the trip. Little bit pricey, but still a good experience.
翻译:我们在八月的第一周乘坐了下午 5 点的船。两个大人和一个小孩,总共 55 英镑。我唯一的负面评价是所有儿童的费用为 15 英镑。我们的女儿只有 3 岁,所以这次旅行并没有带给我们太多乐趣,但还是花了我们 15 英镑。
但是,我理解价格,因为我们在安布尔待了一整天,早些的船都满了,我们的船也相当繁忙。他们可以轻松地将座位卖给成人。无论如何,建议在旺季尽早预订。可以在海港村的吊舱购买船票。
船很干净,保养得很好,感觉非常安全。船上的工作人员很有礼貌,乐于助人,但客户服务可能不是他们的强项。没有抱怨,但服务功能并不出色。
行程与描述的完全一致,在科奎特岛往返仅一个多小时的旅程。非常适合观看海豹,看到了很多海豹,而且非常近距离。我参加过很多次海豹观赏之旅,就我们看到的海豹而言,这次无疑是最好的一次。
岛上有很多燕鸥,但你真的需要双筒望远镜才能看到它们。我们看到了一只海鹦,这很特别。海鹦季节通常在 8 月结束,所以不要晚于 7 月中旬去,否则就看不到它们了。
总体来说,这次旅行非常满意。有点贵,但仍然是一次不错的体验。
