We know we’ve been a bit quiet on here lately, and that’s because there’s been a lot going on behind the scenes.

We had every intention of beginning this season at Easter, but a combination of red tape, strong winds and some pretty lively seas meant we ‘missed the boat’. We then lined ourselves up for the following weekend…and yes, once again the sea was uncooperative.

So rather than keep battling against it, we made the call to start the season properly on Saturday 2nd May - and we’re very ready to finally get going.
Sea and wind conditions permitting, we’ll be kicking things off with a 4-hour Filey Bay Coastal Cruise at 10am, followed by a 1-hour Flamborough Head Cruise at 2:45pm. Then in the evening at 7:30pm, we’ll be launching the first of our limited Gin & Rum Cruises for the 2026 season.

After all the delays, it’s safe to say we’re really looking forward to welcoming you back on board and getting out where we belong.

If you’d like to be among the first aboard this season, you can book here:

Wow! What a response to our cruise dates going live!

So many of you have already snapped up your tickets, especially for our Bempton Cliffs and Gin & Rum cruises… so it seems you all love your seabirds and your spirits!

We’ve had some better weather this week and managed to tick a few jobs off the list, but there’s still plenty to do, so please keep your fingers crossed for some dry days for us.

We’re live!

Our cruise schedule is now available to view, with tickets on sale for cruises from Saturday 2nd May onwards.

We’re hoping to begin sailing for two weeks over Easter, however, these dates aren’t available to book just yet while we continue with our winter maintenance and make sure we’re ready (or as close to ready as possible!). The old girl needs plenty of TLC, and the weather hasn’t exactly been on our side.

On another note, we will soon be advertising for more crew so if you're interested, get in there early and send your CV to [email protected]

We can’t wait to welcome you onboard.

Evenings on the water just hit differently.

Don’t forget, our tickets go live tomorrow (Friday 20th February) at 6pm, including our much-loved Gin & Rum Cruises.

There’s something rather special about watching the sun dip below the horizon with a drink in hand and the sea air around you… and it seems you agree, as they sold out very quickly last year.

We’ve only been able to schedule a limited number this season, so if you spot a date that suits you, don’t leave it too long.

Here’s a little sneak peek at this year’s dates…

- Saturday 2nd May
- Saturday 23rd May
- Saturday 13th June
- Friday 17th July
- Saturday 1st August
- Saturday 15th August
- Friday 28th August
All 7:30-9pm

Our 2026 cruise schedule is pending...

We will launch tickets for sale on Friday 20th February 2026 at 6pm.

Which cruises will you be booking?

Do you want to see the majestic gannets with their 6ft wing span soaring above the boat diving for their dinner? Or are you hoping to catch a glimpse of the shy little Atlantic puffin as it peeks out of its chalky cave?

Maybe you'd prefer a sunset evening gin cruise with over 100 different Yorkshire gins to pick from? Or dance the night away with the very in-demand Just Coz?

Whichever way you want to join us, we will be so happy to welcome you aboard and look forward to seeing you soon!

Oooh, what’s occurring here then? 👀

A bit of Friday evening cruise planning…

We’ll let you know when bookings go live, but as you can imagine, there’s quite a lot that goes into planning our schedule. First, we check the tide times and note the low water and height for every single day. Then we decide which trips to run, taking into account the day, the time of year, and how much water there’ll be.

What cruises are you most looking forward to booking? 🚢
