Our onboard Wildlife Guides are the best there are. Expert in their fields and passionate about wildlife, we feel very privileged to have them as Crew members, providing our guests with an exceptional insight into the wildlife we encounter.
Georgina Kelly is a field ecologist with years of experience within research and consultancy and a wildlife expert in seabirds and cetaceans amongst other species. She currently works as a Warden on the RSPB Skerries Reserve, a small group of islands around 5km off the north coast of Anglesey. We are very fortunate that Georgina comes onboard Proud Seahorse as our Wildlife Guide when her RSPB duties allow her the time.
Read an indepth account of Georgina and her work in Inside Ecology Magazine, January 2018. As you can see from the article, she is also a very talented wildlife photographer.

I have cruised before with Hebrides Cruises and this time chose to do the one "that visited the puffins and Staffa". The crew were as brilliant as ever and the food was definitely 5* all the way including catering for the individual dietary requirements too. We were able to land in some beautiful places and did see the puffins on Lunga which is a magical experience listening to them "chatting away" just a couple of metres away from your feet! We also was taken into Fingal's cave on the tender which was an unexpected bonus to the trip. We were very lucky with the weather and our wildlife sightings included a huge pod of common dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, minke whales, feral goats and a sea eagle literally flying low past the ship! Thank you to Chris, Zoe, Craig, Sian and Emma for such a lovely relaxing break. I can't wait to return...
