An absolutely brilliant trip - it still feels quite surreal. St Kilda and the stacks are unsurpassed in their beauty, and the history of the place and the people is amazing. Thank you to Seamus for his help, and a big thanks to John and Innes on the day for getting us over there, excellent patter and for putting up with our mild hysteria!

What a perfect day and what an adventure!
We went to St. Kilda on 10th April, having thought we wouldn't make it because of weather.
Thank you so much to Seamus and John for all the care and attention.
We feel part of a special club - those who have had tea and ginger cake in St. Kilda bay.

| The trip out to St Kilda with Sea Harris was a birthday present for my husband and thanks to Seumas and John, it will be an experience that won't be forgotten. We had a fantastic time and Seumas and John were full of information....their care and attention was second to none ( as was the ginger cake !). Thankyou for a most memorable trip. |

| What a treat this trip was. Every time we turned a corner it got more amazing. Weather was fabulous and we got an April tan!! Visit to the stacs were especially breathtaking and John's stories of the men of St Kilda really helped us to imagine what they endured to survive. Thanks to Seamas and John for their humour and care and for making this anniversary present very special. |

| In awe of the place! Walking up to the cliffs looking over to Boreray, gannets and puffins flying about everywhere! So much to explore around the village and going up the hill to the lovers stone. Going around the cliffs and caves in the boat afterwards was great! Well looked after on the boat couldn't feel more at home. |

Chris, John and Seumas enabled a lifetime dream to come true on Friday 21st September.
The whole day was perfect from start to finish. Walking on our own to the top of Conachair and then around the cliffs with only the gannets and wrens for company was superb. And then followed by a barefoot walk along a pristine beach - sublime! The trip around Stac Lee and Boreray with the gannets wheeling overhead was a fabulous finale.
Thank you for a truly wonderful, unforgetable experience. |

| My hubby and I visited St Kilda on Friday 21st September 2012. We were taken care of by Chris who was our skipper that day and John who was his crew. (also made a great cuppa tea and served seamus's mum briliant ginger cake). Once we got to St Kilda we were given 4.5 hours to do as we wished (of course observing health and safety whilst on the islands). We did what we came out to do and will take back a lot of fond memories of such a special day. thank you all at seaharris. |

Ocean glistening with light. Swell swelling.
We thought we had speed until the gannet easily overtook us.
The perfect shape of the islands of Sint Kilda, with the history of these amazing humans.
This skua diving at us, who climbed too close to its young.
The spectacular stacs of Boreray with breeding gannets. Not to speak of all the little black and whites everywhere around us. Becoming one with the birds.
Seumas and Ian brought us to all this beauty. THANKS |

| A memorable trip by boat to St.Kilda, 'The edge of the world' was an experience i,ll not forget. It was a privilege to visit. The sea stacks covered with thousands of seabirds the swell of the blue sea, along with Village Bay looked amazing in the glorious sunshine. The seasmanship and skill of skipper Seumus and crewman John was first rate. the sea crossing not for the faint hearted but it must be one of the best boat trips in the British Isles. Thanks to all at Seaharris. |

| Trip to St Kilda on the 10th of July was the highlight of our holiday. It is an amazing place. Loved the trip round Boreray and the Stacks on the way back - a must for any bird watcher.Will definately be going again. Added bonus of a cup of tea and a bit of cake on the boat too. |

| We had a great time, a group of botanists going to Gaisgeir, which was a fantastic flowery island with a welcoming committee of seals and seabirds. Such a treat, and Seumas and Alastair were great in getting us on and off. And all the locals were right...there is no grass on the Taransay Glorigs. Ah well... |

What a day! The weather was brilliant and Seumas and John really looked after us. The trip was great for hill-walkers, bird watchers and (for me) those that have an interest in the history of Hirta.
The boat trip was tremendous. The walking on Hirta amazing and the sail round Boreray and the Stacs the perfect finale.
Couldn't recommend the trip more. You will get a day that you will never forget.

A truly unforgettable experience.
4-1/2 hours is just enough to get a flavour of Hirta. There is always a bit of luck with weather re photography and cloud / mist base.
A magic trip.
Good safety conscious crew en route always watching over the welfare of the passengers.
Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to converse with old world Scotland and nature.
Thanks Seumas for recommending Taylor Hill.

My first time visiting Harris, and my first time trying to visit St Kilda. Seumas could not have been more helpful in trying to ensure I got the opportunity, and as a result I had an absolutely perfect trip to St Kilda with Sea Harris.
The weather could not have been better: calm seas, blue sky, sunshine. Seumas and John ensured that the experience was everything it should be: safe, friendly, fun, and their knowledge and experience added so much. I'd recommend Sea Harris to anybody! |

| Scalpay School pupils, staff, parents and a grandparent finally made a long awaited trip to the Shiants on Friday 22 June thanks to Sea Harris. We were not disappointed! The Shiants are spectacular and well worth a visit. This trip will be amongst one of our lasting memories of our time at Scalpay School with its imminent closure on Friday 29 June. Thank you to Seumas and John for looking after us so well and making the trip such a special day in our lives. A return visit is a must. |

| Excellent school trip to the Shiants, 8 kids and 9 adults in 2 trips leaving from Kyles Scalpay. Fresh NE wind made for a choppy but comfortable trip out. Amazing to see the Island from a different perspective having fished around it many times. Thanks to Seumas and John for the relaxed but proffessional way they went about their business. Brilliant, best school trip ever was the comment from the kids! |
