Check out the nearby town of Elliston, once called Bird Island Cove, which is ideal for bird watchers and Puffin enthusiasts. Walk along the cliffs to see thousands of Puffins nesting nearby. This is the closest view you can get of Puffins in all of North America.

Bring your binoculars and cameras to get the best views.
