Mersey Ferries, National Museums Liverpool and the RSPB have joined forces to once again host the hugely popular Liverbird Discovery Cruises on the River Mersey and out into the bay. The cruises are perfect for all the family and to those whom are both new and experienced watchers. Previous sightings have included long-tailed skuas, peregrine falcons, osprey and Atlantic grey seals. The RSPB will provide a running commentary and experts will be on hand to answer your questions.

Thursday 18th August & Saturday 3rd September 2011 - picking up at Seacombe 11.00am, Liverpool Cruise Liner Terminal at 11.10am and Woodside at 11.20am.

Thursday 15th September 2011 pick up at Seacombe 11.00am and Woodside 11.10am ONLY - this cruise is part of the Mersey River Festival and is on the day that vessel Queen Mary 2 is visiting. Please note we are NOT able to use the Cruise Liner Terminal on this day, hence only Seacombe and Woodside pick up/drop off.
