Join us aboard Coastal Vibes for a special Spring bird watching cruise exploring Weymouth Bay and Portland Harbour at one of the most exciting times of year for local birdlife.

Led by experienced local birdwatcher Paul Harris, this relaxing cruise offers a fantastic opportunity to witness Spring migration, as returning Summer visitors and migrating birds join the resident seabirds that call our coastline home. Paul will provide live commentary throughout the cruise, sharing his knowledge of local birdlife, helping guests identify different species and pointing out wildlife sightings along the way.

From the open decks of Coastal Vibes, we’ll explore the waters, shoreline and skies in search of a wonderful variety of seabirds, coastal birds and spring migrants. Birds of prey are always a highlight, with the exciting possibility of spotting something particularly special passing through during migration.

Whether you’re an experienced birdwatcher or simply enjoy wildlife and being out on the water, this cruise offers a wonderful opportunity to experience the excitement of Spring migration from a completely different perspective.

Our fully licensed bar will be open throughout the cruise, serving hot and cold drinks, with our Breakfast menu also available to purchase.

Don’t forget your binoculars! You never know what you might spot along the way!

Possible sightings include:

Fulmar • Manx Shearwater • Gannet • Cormorant • Little Egret • Grey Heron • White-tailed Eagle (rare) • Osprey • Peregrine Falcon • Oystercatcher • Whimbrel • Bar-tailed Godwit • Arctic Skua • Great Black-backed Gull • Kittiwake • Sandwich Tern • Common Tern • Rock Pipit • Wheatear • Raven • Swift • Swallow • House Martin • Sand Martin

Please note: This dedicated birdwatching cruise will explore Weymouth Bay and Portland Harbour, rather than travelling along the Jurassic Coast towards Durdle Door. The route has been specifically chosen to maximise opportunities for birdwatching during spring migration.
