Blakeney seal trips with Beans Boats

COVID 19 and our SEAL TRIPS

As you can imagine we are very keen to get back on the water and resume trips to see the seals and birds at Blakeney Point.

Although some restrictions have been lifted slightly, these do not apply to commercial boats and therefore for the safety of our passengers and crews, we are still having to follow government guidelines and our own governing authorities and keep the boats tied up at the quayside!

We hope in the coming weeks that things will improve and we may be able to start some sort of operation - albeit with restrictions to ensure your safety at all times. We will keep you informed with any news updates as we have them, both on our website and on social media.

Many thanks for your continuing support and we look forward to seeing you in the not too distant future.

Please keep safe!

With 50 years experience of operating in Blakeney Harbour, a trip to the Blakeney Seals with Beans Boats offers a rare opportunity to get ‘up close and personal ’ to the resident Grey seal and Common Seal colonies without causing disturbance.

After boarding one of our five custom ferries at Morston we head up Morston Creek and out into Blakeney Harbour. Relax and enjoy the beautiful Norfolk Coastline from the shelter of the harbour or keep an eye out for resident and migrating birds.

As Blakeney Point is one of the most important sites for migrating birds in Europe, there's plenty to see on our way to the Seal Colony. Passing the old Blakeney Lifeboat station our crew tell you something of the local history and about the harbour before you arrive at the end of Blakeney Point where Common and Grey Seals can usually be found hauled out. We spend time getting in close and turning to allow plenty of opportunity for photos, inquisitive seals will also frequently pop out around the boat. Time and tide allowing (see timetable) there is an optional landing on Blakeney Point before returning to Morston to disembark.

Adults £13.00 / Children £7.00 (14 and under)
