Flat Holm Island

Visiting

Trips are available all year round to visit Flat Holm, from day trips to longer stays.

There are pre-organised  boat trips to the island that depart from Cardiff several times a month. The trips allow you up to three hours on the island, depending on tide times.

Alternatively, you can tailor your own visit if you have a large group or would like to stay for a long day or overnight.

Day visits

A short day visit to Flat Holm provides up to three hours on the Island and offers a unique opportunity to see Flat Holm’s conservation, wildlife and historic buildings.
