It is a startlingly beautiful place, nestled like a jewel in the Atlantic, three and a half miles long and half a mile wide, just 12 miles from the mainland off the North Devon coast. Lundy Island is now home to 21,000 seabirds, including increasing numbers of puffins. The National Trust says bird numbers on the granite outcrop off the Devon coast had declined due to non-native rats eating eggs and chicks after being imported unwittingly on visiting ships or from shipwrecks. Most day visitors travel on Lundy’s own ferry and supply ship, the graceful German-built MS Oldenburg, which is an experience in its own right. Built in 1958 the vessel retains many of her original brass and wooden fittings providing comfortable heated saloons, a bar, buffet, a gift shop and an information desk. Visiting Lundy Island lets you immerse yourself in a proud (and interesting) history.

Reading up on the history of the island, the fishermen of Ilfracombe and Clovelly were the violence that came by boat. Each year, they took thousands of eggs and over 20,000 bird wings to adorn ladies hats. Worse, puffin feathers made money, 24 dead birds to the pound of feathers.

Lundy literally translates to “puffin Island”, because that is the main thing that happens here—puffin nesting. From a boat, guests can see in close enough range to witness the colony dig, feed and nest. However, disembark and more nearby glimpses are possible.
