Saltees trip Sunday 20th June (new title)

    After my disastrous attempt at a trip to the Saltees last year, with the weather
    turning dog on me, I would love to attempt it again this year. I am thinking
    the second week in June if anyone is interested? From memory it is about
    €25 each (could be wrong about that) If anyone is interested let me know.

    You can count me in Jenny, hopefully this year we will get better weather as I was very disappointed last year :( . At the moment I’m fine for the second weekend in June.

    I’d be potentially interested depending on commitments closer to the time…would there be room for me :) ?

    i’d be interested – would need to check dates nearer time – where does the boat leave from ?

    Kilmore Quay in Wexford, I think around 10.30am and there for most of the day before the boat returns to pick up.

    I will start a list if anyone else is interested just add your name, we can firm up on a definite date nearer the time, and see what the weather is going to be doing.

    Jenny,

    I won’t be able to make it, pity as the first trip was great.

    Might be worth changing the thread title to reflect that the trip is on, eg
    PI Trip to Saltees – June , type of thing. Get more attention for it…

    Cheers

    On a point of interest , is it possible to get close to the birdlife on Saltees? Would a 70-200 lens suffice?
    I would love to visit this island. I tried Rathlin but it wasn’t possible to get close enough!…..John.
