What we offer

A medium for organising Expeditions:
Island Expeditions is not a commercially driven business offering guided wildlife holidays with accommodation and flights .Our principle focus is helping people to enjoy remote islands and areas rich in wildlife that are logistically difficult to reach without extensive planning and effort. Generally we only look to cover costs keeping prices among participants to an absolute minimum therefore conditions and accommodation can often be very basic and usually involve some sort of camping. Participants must possess a good level of fitness and be more than capable of looking after themselves in remote locations. A relaxed attitude with lots of patience and flexibility always helps the trip to run smoothly and nearly always the reward is worth all the effort. Please contact us to discuss your ideas in detail and then we can put something together and post it on the website.
Logistical support (fixing)
Whatever your needs we are pleased to discuss your requirements. Enquiries are welcomed from tv and film prodecers, wildlife photographers, government, independent or conservation bodies undertaking wildlife studies such as survey or census work seabird/sea mammal ringing, banding, tracking or tagging.
We can tailor an expedition to your specific requirements
This can be done either as a complete package to include everything from permissions to boat charter or for just certain elements of your trip. We have a wide range of back up and safety equipment ranging from eco friendly igloo pre-fabricated pods to satellite communication.
