Danni's First Puffin | We Got Stranded on an Island!

Description

We drove to Wales to see puffins on Skomer Island and we had no idea what we were getting into. Danni had never seen a puffin before. The forecast said rain. We got sunburnt. We had lunch with seals. And then the boat broke down and we got stranded on the island. This is the story of one of the best days we've had in three years of van life and why Skomer Island in Pembrokeshire is one of the most magical places in the UK to see puffins up close. Where else to see puffins in the UK: • Skomer Island, Wales • Farne Islands, Northumberland • Bempton Cliffs, Yorkshire • South Stack Cliffs, Anglesey • St Kilda, Outer Hebrides • Isle of May, Fife • Treshnish Isles, Mull • Lundy Island, Devon Puffin trip tips: 👉 Visit May–July. 👉 Book Skomer boat tickets in advance, they sell out fast. 👉 Take suncream AND waterproofs (we learned the hard way). 🎥 We're Danni & Angela — two adventure-loving, van-dwelling, road-tripping lesbians sharing our unconventional life. We've been living in our tiny home on wheels for three years, working full-time from our laptops, and having incredible adventures in between. New videos every other Sunday.
