About Scottish Seabird Centre

In a stunning location overlooking the sea and sandy beaches, you'll have a great day out at the Scottish Seabird Centre with its exciting Discovery Centre, Gift Shop and Cafe with open decking over the sea. 

Summer is one of the best times to visit the Scottish Seabird Centre! All the seabirds are nesting, many with eggs or chicks. The famous Bass Rock gannets cover the island, described by Sir David Attenborough as "one of the wildlife wonders of the world". The puffins are enjoying the sunshine, gathering in large groups on the islands, especially in the early morning and late afternoon, giving hours of entertainment on our cameras. The penguin-like guillemots and razorbills pack tightly together on cliff ledges with their chicks and the eider ducks parade around the sandy bays with their large families of ducklings. There have also been several recent sightings of dolphins and porpoises.
