Skomer Island offers a day out, and is accessed by a boat trip. You can walk around the island and enjoy the puffins, which nest there in early summer. There is plenty of wildlife life and spring flowers, which makes for a scenic day out.

Skomer Island, lying less than a mile off the beautiful Pembrokeshire coast, is a world renowned wildlife paradise. The exposed headlands, towering offshore rocks, and sheltered inlets of this fascinating island are home to a incredible variety of wildlife, both above and below the surface. Skomer is most famous for its Puffins. Together with neighboring Skokholm Island it forms the largest breeding Puffin colony in Southern Britain. But the Puffins account for just a small portion of the wildlife who call this island their home. With and estimated population of up to 165,000 pairs, Skomer is also home to the largest and most important breeding colony of Manx Shearwater in the world! The island is open 1 April (or Good Friday, whichever is earlier) to 30 September and is closed Mondays. Landing trips depart from Martin’s Haven, just a short drive from the cottage, daily at 10am, 11am and 12 noon.

Get to Martins Haven early if you would like to see the puffins. The colony are on Skomer from May till July and draw visitors from all over the world. You can't book in advance as this is a weather dependant trio.
