Bishops Boats Seal Trips
About
Bishop’s Boats offers unforgettable seal‑watching tours along Norfolk’s picturesque Blakeney Point. Departing daily from Morston Quay, the wooden boats glide across calm waters to bring visitors face‑to‑face with grey and common seals, including their energetic pups during the June‑August season. Friendly, licensed crew members provide engaging commentary on local wildlife, maritime history, and the surrounding nature reserve, making each trip both educational and relaxing. Dogs are welcome, and the short 40‑minute walk from the car park and cafes is well worth the immersive experience. Whether you’re a family seeking a memorable outing, a wildlife enthusiast craving close encounters, or a photographer eager to capture rare moments, Bishop’s Boats delivers a unique adventure that showcases one of England’s largest seal colonies. The tours last approximately one hour, and advance booking is strongly recommended—especially during peak summer months—although private charters are also available for those seeking a more exclusive experience.
