The May Princess has been sailing from Anstruther to the beautiful Isle of May almost every day from 1st April to 30th September, for the last twenty years. The trip lasts from 4.5 to 5 hours, which includes 2.5 to 3 hours on the Island, and if the weather allows a slow circumference of the Island on the boat. Enjoy the commentary and assistance from our experienced skipper and crew, who will try to make your day-out a most memorable one. The boat also has a small snack bar and toilets.
Christened ‘The Jewel of the Forth’, and lying only 5 miles off the Fife coast, the island is an important National Nature Reserve, owned and run by NatureScot (SNH), whose rangers will provide information concerning the wildlife, and patrol the island during your visit. Up to 200,000 seabirds can nest on the May, including guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes, shags and around 90,000 puffins. The best time for puffins is from April to mid-August. Around 300 seals live on the Island all year round and if you are lucky you may see porpoises, dolphins and very occasionally the odd whale.
