Symbol of Skomer - the popular
Puffin. | |
Skomer is a spectacular island renowned for its sea bird colonies, which are
amongst the most important habitats in North West Europe. The island lies to the
south west of the Marloes Peninsula of Pembrokeshire. The island's isolation
means that it is protected from predators such as rats, cats, dogs and foxes,
and also from the human impact on the mainland. |

Getting close to nature
can be a real adventure at the Farne Islands which lie just off the Northumberland
coast. Bird watchers are in for a treat. | |  |
The Isles of Scilly
are the most isolated and possibly the most beautiful islands in Britain, located
30 miles off the South West mainland. |
