Hi Doc, it has been a while since I have been out to the farnes.
I am missing my RIB even more now after seeing these pictures.
I hope to get out there soon.

From memory the pics look like the inner farnes; thae island where the bird wardens live?

Your right its the inner farnes. The wardens had just arrived for the season, they stay until September. Fantastic place and its a really nice run up the coast from Amble marina.

I normally launch from Beadnell. I have only launched from Amble once.

I am tempted to use Amble a bit more this season as it is half the drive / double the cruising!

Hi, the wife daughter and I took our little Zodiac there a couple of years ago.
We launched from Knacker Hole in Beadnell and went over to take pictures of puffins.
The wardens were very friendly, it is a beautiful place even though the terns were dive bombing us and crapping on us.

Would love to go back and get some more pictures of puffins....maybe soon?!

Great picture, its a lovely place and the wardens are friendly. They stay from March until September.

Its deserted in the winter months so you have the island to your self.

Loads of wild life but still haven't come across the white tipped dolphins just off Outer Farnes.
