The camping parts the easy part! Just Google lundy shore office, they require 24 hours notice. There is also a £6 landing fee to pay for private boats.

I will scan through the local tide times for May through to Mid July for now. Looking for weekends with suitable tide times.

Hi
I'm definitely up for a Lundy trip around July but would need to be a weekend.
Apple fore is the ideal launch site for me and camping would be great.
I'll follow this and look out for any confirmation of dates.

Bude is also a good jump off point, about a 17nm trip out with some great coast line to explore.

If anyone fancies a longer run Portishead to Lundy is a good way to clear out the cobwebs.

Well any time from easter onwards really. I am very local so will fit around others. As long as the weather and sea state is calm then I'm available at short notice. And I won't be as quick as you ribbers!

I'm up for 25/26th too, as long as the weather conditions are right. I'm only up the road in Bideford so I can decide at short notice.
