The Longstone Lighthouse Cruise is one of the most unique experiences on the Northumberland coast. After leaving Seahouses, you’ll head out across the Farne Islands, sailing past seabird colonies before reaching Longstone Island - the most important island for shipping along this coastline and the historic home of Grace Darling.
Once on the island, you can explore the lighthouse that guided ships for generations. Step into Grace Darling’s bedroom, look out across the rocks where the Forfarshire wrecked in 1838, and climb to the top for sweeping coastal views. With an Atlantic Grey Seal colony nearby and dramatic island scenery all around, this is a trip that blends wildlife, history and unforgettable coastal moments.
