We also hope to include a sail around the the island to see the seabirds and seals.
A bar and buffet will be available on board.

Lundy’s own ship, the MS Oldenburg, is a graceful motor vessel, comfortable and built on traditional lines. Below decks she retains her original panelling and brass fittings, but has been skillfully modernised to provide heated saloons, bar, buffet, shop and information centre.
The bar offers a wide range of drinks and a relaxing atmosphere, whilst hot and cold food is provided at the buffet. You can while away the time in our well stocked shop or find out more about the island at the information centre.
On fine days there is plenty of space on deck and if you are lucky you may be treated to the company of a playful pod of dolphins who often delight in following the ship.
We are hopeful that the trip can be run this year, but it is obviously dependent on the ongoing COVID-19 situation. Updates and information regarding the trip and the availability of tickets will be posted on this page and circulated via email.
The date is chosen after taking into account tide times, which govern sailing and return times. This is important as many people have to travel considerable distances, both before and after the event.
As much notice as possible and full refunds will always be given if a trip is expected to be cancelled.
