Temple's Seal Trips & Blakeney Point - Morston, Norfolk ENGLAND
This weekend i visited Norfolk in England and took a boat trip to see the SEALS in their natural environment basking on BLAKENEY POINT.
We collected our pre-booked tickets from the Anchor Pub and went to Morston Quay to catch the boat to see both Common and Grey Seals.
They are very inquisitive animals, so swam near the boat. The views are stunning, and what better chance to breathe in the fresh air of the North Norfolk coast.
The trip is a unique experience for all ages – a rare opportunity to visit wildlife in its natural surroundings and i'd definitely recommend.
On the way home we stopped at Blakeney Point on a beautiful strip of beach and visited the old Lifeboat house which is now an information centre owned by the National Trust.
Currently priced at £12 adult and £6 child - great value family trip

Blakeney Seals
A glimpse of Blakeney seals last summer...I'm sorry it's such a short video, but they are incredibly hard to film and photograph in the water, especially if you're not a professional photographer like me!, so I filmed what I could and the rest of the time I just watched them and took them in.

Grey seal, Ramsey Island, St Davids, Wales
Around 100,000 live around the coast of Britain. It is one of the world's rare seals and may grow up to seven feet in length. These seals are found all around the coast of Pembrokeshire There are areas where you can actually dive with them. Breeding takes place in the autumn, when the males come ashore to establish territories. A female may mate with more than one male to produce a pup of around 14kg which she suckles for three weeks, gaining 2kg per day due to the 60% fat content of the milk. Sand eels and cod comprise the seal's main food but they will take whatever fish are in abundance. On average, a female may live until 35, ten years longer than male grey seals.

Blakeney Harbour and Village
This is the video of Blakeney, where we stayed. I loved the houses there, the streets were really narrow to the point where you pass someone within inches, or even having to back up the car! Even walking you often have to squeeze in to let cars go by.
There are little alleyways all down the main road filled with old flint houses and cottages, some are named for their original purpose. The cottage we stayed in is at the end, you can see Finley and Charlie at the door.
Lovely week, but chilly and windy!
________________________________
Some info on Blakeney:
Blakeney was a commercial seaport until the early 20th century. Now the harbour is silted up, and only small boats can make their way out past Blakeney Point to the sea. The harbour and surrounding marshes are owned by the National Trust and is a nature reserve where seals can be seen basking on the sand.
In the Domesday Book of 1085, Blakeney is recorded under the name Esnuterle.
Blakeney was formally called Snitterley and the settlement is first formally mentioned as Blakeney in a document which dates from 1340. Around the same period the then King Edward III's wife, Queen Philippa is said to have dined on fish caught by Blakeney's fishermen.
From the 12th century Blakeney had a reputation for acts of piracy: between 1328 and 1350 it is recorded that men of Blakeney boarded two vessels from Flanders and sailed them back to Blakeney haven, where they were stripped of their cargoes. Many a foreign merchant ship which sought shelter in the haven found their cargoes stolen. Such was the lawlessness[ of the residents of Blakeney that the village refused to supply a ship for the battle against the Spanish armada.
The area of marshland around Blakeney Point is owned by the National Trust and up to a hundred species of birds can be found there throughout the year.
