Based in Lerwick, Shetland Islands, Thule Charters operate marine sightseeing and wildlife tours to the seabirds and seals around the Noss and Hermaness RSPB wildlife and nature reserves. From Sumburgh Head at the southern end of Shetland to Muckle Flugga at the northern end, our tours take in some of Shetlands most spectacular and beautiful scenery, seabirds, seals and other marine mammals, historic landmarks and uninhabited islands.
