Hide AdA spokesperson said: “After spending winter out at sea, puffins are returning to their summer breeding grounds on Yorkshire’s coast.
"Our Flamborough Cliffs nature reserve is one of the few places you can see puffins on the UK mainland. So, join us for the first weekend in June when we’ll be celebrating the return of Yorkshire’s colourful clifftop characters.
"With unmissable wildlife watching boat trips, guided walks and other family friendly wildlife activities, Yorkshire Puffin Festival is the best way to get your wild summer off to a flying start!
"There’s a unique opportunity to sail aboard a traditional coble boat for an hour to spot seals, dolphins and Yorkshire's spectacular seabirds.
