Searles’ Sea Tours

Searles’ Sea Tours is located off the central promenade in Hunstanton, Norfolk, England, and they offer five different tours of the coastline.  Visitors on this trip can see the seals that live in the Wash area of Norfolk County.  This is the largest colony of common seals that can be found in the world.  Other activities include riding the ‘Wash Monster’ (amphibious craft) and exploring the variety of wild and sea life in this area.

Seal Island is the biggest and longest sea tour conducted by the company. The fourteen mile tour takes quite a while aboard the 60 seater Sealion vessel.  Visitors will see anywhere from 100 to 500 common seals basking in the sun in their natural habitat and you will definitely want to bring your camera along.

The Coastal Cruise is a thirty minute tour in the Sealion or on the Wash Monster.  Guides escort their visitors out into the wash and then into the North Sea to view the cliffs, Old Hunstanton, and the lighthouse that guards the coast.  The Cliff and Wreck tour is also a thirty minute tour on the Sealion or Wash Monster and once again the cliffs and lighthouse are featured along with the wreck of the ship called the Sheraton.

Hunstanton from the Sea is a twenty minute tour of the coastline, giving the visitor a panoramic view of the town and the Wash.  You can also take a thirty minute tour of one of the sandbanks off the coast via the Wash Monster.

The Searles’ Sea Tours are conducted from April 1st to September 3rd as the weather conditions deem fit.  Groups, coach tours, and parties are welcomed and visitors are advised to visit the website at http://www.seatours.co.uk to book a tour or call them at telephone number 01485 534444 or 07831 321 799.
