The puffin tour of Machias Seal Island was the hands-down highlight of our trip to Maine. We were able to dock on the island and spend time in the puffin blind. So many birds and this is definitely… Al B的完整评论

Hello. It most likely depends on the weather. Sunny calm days will offer a smooth transfer, while days when the water is choppy will make the transfer difficult. The boat crew assists passengers, but its best to direct this question to the captain and crew before you book your trip. They were friendly and happy to answer all our questions. Enjoy!
From what I understand the tour allows you to be quite close to the birds -- but I'm still unsure of exactly how close, ie, which lens I should bring if I go next summer. To get a profile of a puffin, would I need something beyond 250mm, or are you really that close? Thanks!

Jen, I had a similar question before going on this tour and called and spoke to the boat Captain's wife. She recommends against the longer lens because of the boat transfer to the island can be tricky depending on the sea state. Thus, I took my 70-200mm zoom and it fine. Once on the island, you are in a blind that will accommodate up to 3 or 4 people. The puffins actually land on top of the blinds and are sitting on the rocks just outside the blinds. I was able to get some GREAT shots sitting on the rocks and in flight. Danny
