Enjoy the sea air in Sheringham and Wells-next-the-Sea, with a boat trip in between to see the seals that are usually basking off the far end of Blakeney Point. The experienced crew will be on hand to provide local information and there is often plenty of birdlife to spot too! Beans Boat Trips have over 80 years experience in operating off Morston Creek and Blakeney Harbour, don't miss this rare opportunity to get up close to the resident (and often inquisitive) Grey Seal and Common Seal colonies. Blakeney is also one of the most important sites for migrating birds in Europe and popular summer visitors include Terms, Oyster Catchers, Ringed Plover and many more. Book by Fri 4 Aug to guarantee these prices, just 10 seats left on the boat!
We're due to arrive in Sheringham at 11:30, we'll depart at 13:30, arriving at Morston Quay at 14:00 ready for our 14:30 sailing. At around 15:30 we'll disembark the boat and return to the coach, arriving in Wells at 16:00. We'll head home at 17:15. There will be a 45 minute comfort stop at Dobbies Garden Centre in Kings Lynn the outward journey. Note for passengers boarding at Serpentine Green. There are road closures on the slip roads at junction 3 of the Fletton Parkway, the coach will pick up as planned but please allow more time to get to your departure point.
Please note, the boats are open (so that you get the best view of the seals) so please dress accordingly. Graham Bean Boat Trips often still run in inclement weather but occasionally very high winds may call for a shorter journey or cancellation. If the boat trip is cancelled on the day, our day trip will continue to operate, with extended stays in Sheringham and/or Wells and you will receive a refund for the boat trip element of the fare paid. If the boat is running but you choose not to take the trip unfortunately you will not be entitled to a refund.
