I've not - sorry. All I know is that they are surprisingly warm for their latitude (due to North Atlantic Drift). I'd love to hear anyone's experiences ....

No, but I've heard it is a great place to view Orca.

Sadly no, money redundancy (now I have a better job than before) etc - stopped me.

Is there anything in particular you want help with regarding that area?

I've never been there myself, although I did work (half a year only, 20 years ago) for a tourist agency specializing on that area :P

I do have working buddies now that have been there and our ships pass by there now and then so I might get you answers if you give me the questions

Apologies for not replying for so long.
I just wondered a) what sea birds you can see there and how much it costs etc.
