From the Deer Park on the headland at Wooltack Point, just above the campsite, you can look westward to Skomer Island — one of West Wales' most picturesque islands with stunning and varied wildlife.
From a sea strewn with rafts of guillemots, razorbills and puffins, to exposed headlands, towering offshore rocks and sheltered inlets — home to the birds and mammals of this amazing island nature reserve.
Just 10 minutes' walk along the coast path from the campsite is Martin's Haven, from where a 50-seater passenger boat, the Dale Queen, offers gentle cruises and day-trip landings.
Skomer Cruises on the Dale Queen
Enjoy an hour's cruise with expert naturalist commentary — unique views of Skomer's seabirds soaring around the cliffs, seals basking on the rocks, and porpoise feeding in the Marine Nature Reserve.
Departing from Martin's Haven Tuesday–Sunday at 12.30pm and 1.30pm. Mondays: 10.30am & 11.45am (except bank holidays).

Daily Skomer Island Landings
A 20-minute boat ride takes you to one of the best wildlife experiences in Britain. Spend the day exploring the island nature reserve — thousands of puffins, guillemots and razorbills. The island has 87 steep steps from the landing point; a certain level of fitness is required.
Sailings are weather-dependent — decisions made by 9.00am each day.
Departing daily 10am–12pm, returning from 3pm (1 April – 30 September). No landings on Monday except Whitsun Week.

Important: Please read the essential Skomer Island landing information before your trip.
Skomer and Skokholm Safari
Martin's Haven is also the departure point for an exhilarating high-speed Sea Safari to the islands of Skomer and Skokholm, journeying through the infamous white water of 'Jack Sound'. Both islands are home to vast colonies of nesting seabirds — including the largest puffin colony in southern Britain.
