This trip will be led by Julie Mason & Pat Brunt and members can expect to see good views of the beautiful Roseate Terns of Coquet Island. The day will include a 1 hr 15 minute boat trip around the island to enable good views and photographs of Common, Arctic, Sandwich and Roseate Terns. The island holds 90% of the UK population of Roseate Tern, along with thousands of Puffins and hundreds of Eider. We plan to visit several nature sites such as Cresswell Pond and Durridge Bay over the course of the day. Members who do not want to go on the boat will visit Hauxley Nature Reserve before rejoining the group. There are 24 places on the boat, booked on a first-come-first-served basis.
The 33-seater coach will collect members at the following pickup points:
Middlesbrough (Dorman's Museum) 08:00
Stockton High Street (ex-Swallow Hotel) 08:15
Hartlepool (M&S Car Park) 08:30
The cost will be £18.00 per person (boat trip to Coquet) or £11.00 (land based reserves only). A packed lunch will be required.
