The Northumberland coast is photogenic — with mile upon mile of long sandy beaches and big skies, its broad vistas and moody, changeable cloud formations are pleasing to the eye … and the photographer’s lens! This tour will be led by award-winning photographer Robert Harvey, an expert in landscape and wildlife photography. We’ll make daily excursions from our comfortable hotel base in search of the region’s wildlife, landscapes and castles. Our visits to the Farne Islands will provide excellent opportunities to photograph a tantalising array of seabirds at close range, from exquisite Arctic Terns to the ever-photogenic Puffins. Back on the mainland, our time will be spent photographing some of the county’s iconic castles, including Bamburgh, making the best use of light and tides to capture atmospheric images.

A photographic holiday bases in Seahouses Northumberland. Mainly focused on trips to Inner Farne, Staples Islands and Lindisfarne for bird and plant photography, with landscapes of castles and harbours. Lead by an experienced photo guide who supplied many good process to improve upon my technique. The trip did meet expectations with a flexible itinerary to take account of some unseasonable weather. We were able to spend considerable time on all the islands to maximize photo opportunities. I would recommend the trip for those wanting to pursue a photographic vacation.
