Puffin Island Cruises & Fishing Trips in North Wales

Explore Our Experiences

All trips depart from Beaumaris, in the southeast corner of Anglesey.

Occasionally fishing trips will depart from Menai Bridge, particularly between late October and March.

If this is the case, we will send full joining instructions at the time of booking.

Beaumaris is Anglesey’s former county town and is home to a wide variety of shops, coffee shops, pubs and places to eat.

Wildlife & Sightseeing Cruises

Join us aboard the Island Princess for a gentle cruise along the Menai Strait to Puffin Island, where you have the opportunity to view an abundance of wildlife in their natural habitat, including puffins, grey seals, bottlenose dolphin and harbour porpoise!

As we cruise down the Strait, there is plenty of opportunity to take in the spectacular scenery of the Snowdonia mountain range and Anglesey coastline, and we’ll also share some local history as we pass various sites along the shore.

Not just a cruise but a complete guided tour with a full commentary from experienced local crews that’s as entertaining as it is informative.

Sea Fishing Trips

Many declare the fishing around Anglesey to be amongst the best in Wales, with an abundant variety of species found just off the coast.

Beginners and family groups are welcome, with expert help and friendly advice always on hand from the skippers. We offer a variety of trip durations, with hot tea and coffee available on longer trips.

Rod hire is available and there is free basic bait on hand at all times. You are also more than welcome to bring your own rod and reel. Other baits, subject to availability and prior arrangement, are mackerel, squid, lugworm, rag-worm, sand-eel and crab.
