The Isle of Mull is home to nearly 4,000 plant species, from majestic Scots pine to rare, fragrant orchids. For its size, it claims a greater biodiversity than anywhere else in the UK. Along 300 miles of coastline, otters romp and seal bask on the rocks; in the rolling hills, red deer roam free.
Join an expert local guide who specialises in the wildlife of Mull. Travelling as part of a small group there is no set route as the wildlife hotspots are dictated by conditions on the day to track down as much wildlife as possible during this tour. Mull’s "Big Three" are the golden eagle, white tailed sea eagle and the Otter so be on the lookout for those! The area is also known for Peregrine falcons, corncrakes & puffins and perhaps seals and deer!
A lunch snack and afternoon tea will be provided.
