Making the most of Prion Island Bay of Isles

Use these notes to shape a realistic day ashore, then confirm any time-sensitive information for the date of your call.

01

Arriving at the port

Cruise ships cannot berth here, so passengers are taken ashore by tender.

Prion Island is another home for wandering albatrosses. Half the island remains accessible to visitors, although several restrictions protect the birds. A boardwalk is being constructed to improve access while safeguarding the island's fragile vegetation.

02

Money

On Prion Island, pound sterling is official currency, circulating the same notes and coins as the United Kingdom.
