Thousand Islands Expeditions

Ian and Cam were just fantastic Skipper and Crew and couldn’t do enough to make our trip a memorable experience! This was our third expedition with these guys over the last three years and something we would highly recommend when holidaying in Pembrokshire. Our Mackerel BBQ dinner was an excellent end to a wonderful day.

Amazing boat trip to Ramsey Island! The staff were so helpful and knowledgeable! We saw lots of seals and pups as well as wild birds. Thanks for a memorable trip!

From the shop, through to the boarding and trip, every aspect was exceptional. Thank you.

Cracking fast-boat tour around Ramsay Island with a hugely knowledgeable guide and skipper. Intimate feeling to the tour - everyone gets a window seat when there's no windows and a small RIB! Saw porpoises, seals, a collection of birds and heard all sorts of interesting facts about the island's formation and history. Thanks folks!

We booked the 2 hour trip to see the puffins at Skomer Island. The car park was good and very close to the lifeboat station where the boat launches from. Once we'd gone down the steps there was a friendly team member who explained the trip and gave everyone a lovely clean coat in case there was spray on the journey. We were helped on board and the two team members on the boat gave us a safety briefing and a few pointers about what to look out for. Once under way we spotted some porpoises, so the captain turned the boat round to get nearer to them, once back underway we spotted a pod of about 20-30 dolphins and the captain took the boat right over to them so they were swimming around and under the boat, it was magical. When the dolphins swam off we went over to Skomer Island with the friendly crew pointing out more things to see on the way. We dropped anchor in North Haven with hundreds of Puffins around, Gannets, Guillemots and more. It was an amazing experience with an exceptionally helpful and friendly team who we couldn't recommend more highly!

Great experience with the dolphin and whale voyage; minibus to St Justinians from outside their office in St David's, then on to a good size boat for a trip to Grassholm Island. We encountered two pods of common dolphins with their young on the way there, saw a few seals at Grassholm, spray from a whale's blowhole and a pod of Risso's dolphins on the way back. Very interesting and knowledgeable commentary at Grassholm on the gannet colony there, though tragic to see even though binoculars the awful effects of plastic waste on this isolated Island and its birds.

We had a lovely 2 hour trip in a fishing boat past Ramsey island and then over to Skomer. There were harbour porpoises on the way out and lots of seabirds around Skomer, including the puffins we’d gone to see. The Harbour master and crew were all v friendly, considerate, helpful and knowledgeable. The commentary they gave about the wildlife was v good.As someone who has vertigo, I didn’t like the ramp that’s used for boarding. It’s quite high and has open steps/fencing on the way up. The jetty ramp down to the boat has a mesh grill floor so you can see the drop to the sea below. However that was the only downside in an otherwise wonderful trip.

Wonderful trip around Ramsey Island with friendly and knowledgeable guide, Morgan, who was happy to answer all the questions my 6 year old and 11 year old had. We saw Harbour Porpoises, shags, gannets, baby seals, buzzards, fulmars and more!

Went on this trip with wife and 2 youngish kids. Was a bit sceptical they would like it, but we all loved it in the end. Well organised and jet boat was comfortable and fast. Staff on boat were great with real knowledge. We say plenty of seals and porpoises as well as many birds. Also great just to get up close to the island. 1 hour trip length was just right for us.

Went on the 1.5 hour trip around Ramsay Island. Very enjoyable trip. Only saw seals as was out of season for birds but great information on island geology as well.
