Meandering WildPuffin Guide to the UK

A small collection of islands that can be reached by boat from Seahouses north of Newcastle.

The Farne Islands, located off the coast of Northumberland, England, are a group of 15 to 20 islands that form an archipelago divided into Inner and Outer Groups. Steep cliffs, lighthouses, and rich wildlife make these islands a haven for seabirds like puffins and Arctic terns, as well as grey seals. Visitors can explore the historic sites, enjoy picnics, and witness the breathtaking natural beauty of this unique island group. Owned by the National Trust, the Farne Islands offer a peaceful retreat and a chance to connect with nature in a stunning coastal setting.
