We have lots of exciting events planned for 2026 - these will go on sale on Monday 8th December.

Sentinels of the Sea; Skomer Island Project Highlights

We are committed to making Skomer Island as inclusive as possible. We want as many people as possible to be able to experience the wonders of our wildlife-packed island.

Packed full of seabirds, endemic species, rare plants, unique geological features and archaeological remains, there's something for every school and university group to get out of a trip to Skomer Island.

Only a 20 minute boat trip from the mainland, Skomer is an excellent place for a daytime adventure. Bursting with seabirds including our Atlantic Puffins, Guillemots and Razorbills, this National Nature Reserve is one of Britain's most important seabird colonies. It is peaceful and wild at all times of year - there's so much to see and explore.

Please note, Puffins start arriving in mid-April. They are present from May-July. The first ones start leaving in mid-July and all Puffins are gone by the end of July. Please see our seasonal timeline below for what to see each month.
