We only booked this one a day in advance. A rare day off together and the last weekend of the season before this trip closes down until spring, increased the urgency of getting this one done for the channel!
Filmed, as always on GoPro8 and Canon 250D, this 'landing cruise' to Inchcolm took place in the last weekend of October 2020 and cost approx £20 each including the landing fees to set foot on the island.
I've been going to Inchcolm since I was very young, but now trips are only every few years and it's always nice to see the place - you'll also see a reference to a very young Steve Marsh on this one so look out for that :D

Do you have any cool trips near your home you would recommend? Who knows, I might do a video on that special place one day!
Isle of Arran
Fairlie moors
Steve - At 09:56, I believe you captured the reason that this abbey was sited on that spot. The views of the surrounding area was just spectacular and the window was built to glorify the Lord.
Thanks very much for this video, l have enjoyed it very much, l will enjoy the next one.
the deep in Hull
I’m disabled and as such I can’t walk. But, thanks to people like you I can still enjoy going to these places. Thanks for posting these gems.
Thanks so much Robert, lovely feedback, I’ll bring more to you soon!
@robert west, ditto. Init nice to live vicariously through others' adventures and letting someone else do all the walking?
@@bjoeljones Absolutely agree.
What a nice thought. And the Voice-over is Just perfect to enjoy it too.
I’m in the same situation.and enjoy these films too 😊
What a great ambassador for Scotland.
Thank you so much for sharing your footage and travelling with us on the Maid of the Forth. It is a beautiful trip and we never tire of taking people to this hidden gem. It is really lovely to see the enjoyment of our passengers when they visit and explore everything Inchcolm has to offer. Thanks again and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon.
And thanks to you for the awesome day out! Everyone we encountered on the Maid and on the Island was super-friendly, and their enthusiasm shines through. Even though the places were incredible, it's always the lovely service that makes these trips so memorable and magical! See you again next season! (with lots of people from my channel too by the sounds of it) :)
Adorable family photo. Thanks for that.
Thanks, Steve, another great film to add to the collection what an immense structure the rail bridge it stands today as a true testament to Scottish engineering
and the men who built it...
Thank for watching! Never tire of seeing that bridge!
Hi Steve , cool video proving yet again that you do not have to travel 5000 miles to get away from everything
Haha ain’t that the truth! I could easily spend a month there!
I would have to travel 5000 Miles to get there. And I will....one day.
May I say how delightful each and every one of your videos are to watch. Thank you for providing them! I am 73 years of age next month, and have wanted to visit Scotland for a long time. Your videos make it possible to see your beautiful country without leaving home, Maybe someday I shall be there to see all these wonderful places in person. Until then, please continue your channel, and many thanks for persevering with videos during the pandemic. If you are looking for suggestions for future subjects, I am a lighthouse fan, and would like to see more lighthouses featured. I have enjoyed te ones you have included so far. From the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state in the USA.
Thanks so much Cindy, and Happy Birthday for when it comes next month! I must start by saying the Olympic Peninsula is one of the most incredible places I have ever been - I remember walks in the woods there that felt other-worldly! (as well as some pretty good ice cream in Port Angeles!) The whole trip there was magical, including the Bainbridge Ferry ride, oh I need to come back!!! Can we just do a house swap for 2 weeks please!!!??? I'll keep an eye out for lighthouses - a favourite of mine too, they are just so spread out here, but maybe it's a future video! Thanks so much for the support of my channel :)
@@steve-marsh Swapping houses sounds intriguing! Let's see if the pandemic ever gets over and we can travel. Keep good thoughts. We have a little dog. Are there quarantine restrictions on bringing him into Scotland? Is it OK to have a dog at your house?
This was one of my favorites so far. Thank you for taking me along. Cheers and God bless you both. ( I just lost my wife 3 weeks ago. We were married I month short of 57 years.)
Oh my, I am so sorry to hear it. You are in my thoughts and wishing you all the best, I can't even imagine and have no words!
So sorry for your loss God bless you Amen
Went here as a kid with school in late 80s. Remember getting buzzed by the seagulls. 🤣
You're well overdue a trip back :) the seagulls are pretty chilled this time of year :D
@@steve-marsh definitely. Also around that area is the ferry brewery. Worth a visit
The great thing about the bridges is how well they sit together.
So true Rob!
What a beautiful video. It was so relaxing to watch, it makes me want to go back to the many parts of Scotland I love. Your family pic was sweet to see as well.
Thanks so much! Yes, it certainly brought back some nice memories and it was great to be able to find the exact spot again!
Did this trip in 2019. A beautiful island and some lovely views.We were lucky enough too see some puffins on and around the island,magical.
A very nice video.thankyou.
Thanks for watching and glad you've had the pleasure of making this trip too! And to see puffins is such a bonus, love those little fellas!
Back in 1987 I went to this place when I made my very first big trainjourney outside the Netherlands (where I live). I have never been further north than this... So, thank you for this nice video and a bit of "memory lane".
Nice to see the wind instrumentation about 11.10. I was part of team sent out Incholm more than 30 years ago to clean the solar panels to charge the batteries every 6 months.
I like the sound of that job! Why can I never find one like that!?
For years I've said that I would like to visit Scotland. Now, it is a must that I do so! Thanks for the great tour. From the U.S.
Thanks so much for watching all the way over there in my favourite country of them all!
Love the photo of you and your family from years ago
Another great blog Steve! My wife and I still manage to visit the forth now and again. We have sailed under those bridges many times on the cruises we did many years ago!
Thank you so much for all your blogs I have watched, the footage is fabulous! You ought to sell all your films/videos to ITV Scotland, I am sure they could make a series of your work
You sure have earned it - your partner too!
Thanks so much from us both! Uplifting comments like that give us all the motivation needed to keep going :)
My fav island...used to take the little boat from SilverSands in Aberdour in the 60s..happy memories
I heard about that boat! Wish I’d had the chance to try that route, might try recreate next year in the kayak
I also remember the little boat service from Aberdour ( Silversands ) back in the early 1970's. My late father would take me and my sister to Inchcolm for a visit, armed with a picnic. It was a blue, open-top diesel powered boat...such an adventure. I'd be 9-10yo at the time. I have an old Kodac photo of the boat in a family album somewhere. Good memories indeed.
Thanks for your wonderful video. I especially liked the view of the old pier at South Queensferry - I remember the old ferries plying the crossing in the 1950’s. We left for Australia in 1961.
Thanks so much for watching, I need to research the old ferry route :)
Live in SQ and keep meaning to go but never have your trip has persuaded me it’s a must for next year
Great to hear it! Thanks for watching :)
It's April 2, 2022. Just seeing this video this morning. What a nice place to visit. What impressed me about this one is the "vintage" look and feel along with how the music played through out. Really relaxing, calming and nostalgic. Kind of funny observation, a three hour adventure, just what was in the huge back pack? I know, I do the same thing sometimes.
Haha Frank I can't even remember what was in the backpack! :D
A great video. I felt really healthy after watching it! Lovely photography and I was pleased to see the Forth Bridge from underneath, a visual as well as an engineering masterpiece. I didn't know about this island so I'm a bit better educated now.
Cheers! Yeah, it sure is an impressive structure. Used to live in Queensferry, but never failed to be awestruck by that bridge!
Another one I'd like to do when we come up to Edinburgh. My cousin can see Inchmickery from her house, I mean hoose 🙂
So lovely to see the bridge from beneath, such a feat of engineering. Oh and I must start collecting sea glass/pottery gems 👌
We are binge watching your videos now Steve; they are fab!
Thanks so much Lynn!!!
You just made my day....Thank you dude.
Thanks so much for watching! :) glad you enjoyed it!
@13:34 what a cracking shot!
Thanks Andrew! I’ve only just started to drop the occasional still photo in and it works quite well
Great stuff Steve, a good look at the old bridge and the abbey was very interesting. 👍
Cheers Steve!
Lovely video, brought back wonderful memories as we were married within the Chapter House at Inchcolm Abbey, mid 2006.
Wonderful.
Cheers Eric!
Thanks for this lovely virtual visit to Inchcolm. Been there a couple of times but a long while ago. You helped alleviate my Lockdown cabin fever!
Thanks for coming along Maggie!
What an amazing bridge! Among other things 😂. A little scary watching you climb out on the headland. Thanks for another fun jaunt.
Absolutely Fantastic Steve, I was there in 2005 seems a lifetime ago.
Excellent.
That was about the last time I was there too!
Wow! So sunny in November.
Excellent presentation thank you, really interesting 👍I look forward to the diversity of your travels 🤗
Cheers! That’s really nice of you to say! Trying to work out where to go next with all these restrictions!
Stunning scenes, I must do this next time we are up visiting our family and friend's, great videography
Thanks so much! Oh yes, please do it, but pick a sunny day!
Another beautiful day and this island is amazing with all the history ❤ when you were standing at the far end of the island you could see the big bridge in the distance 😊. I totally agree I could live on the island 🤗🤗
Oh Laura it's a wonderful island, with so many happy childhood memories :)
@@steve-marsh that makes it even better 🤗
Thanks for another brilliant video Steve, Beautifully captured as usual, The Forth Rail bridge is my favorite, like you I've been over and under it.🤩😍 The Flag shot was pure Genius ! 👍
I saw that shot and just had to get the camera out :)
I just did this tour a few weeks ago and loved it. Thanks for sharing.
Nice one! Glad you enjoyed the trip :) and thanks for watching ours!
Absolutely amazing video!!! The music is perfect and your commentary sounds super professional! The shots and views are obviously stunning😊It may be my favourite vid so far. The amount of work You put into it-You’re a superstar⭐️
Well said!! Amazing stuff on here👍👍
Awwww! Thanks so much that means the world to me 😊 You know how much work goes into these, so it’s amazing to hear! Where next???
@@steve-marsh anywhere will do as you can see by all the comments on here you got it perfect and it’s like Frosties grrrrreat! It gets us through the dark times!! Stay safe can’t wait for the next one!!👍👍

7:27 albeit some initials on the walls, it's great to see no spray paint graffiti covering the buildings. Great video as always Steve (and Missus Steve :) )
Very true Paul! Thanks so much for watching and appreciate your kind words! :)
Wow ! Thank you for the upload .....and the "tag-along" day out just the job at this time of lock down ....bravo
Ahoy Steve! :D Such a great adventure! Loved it! What names! Wow! Maid of the Forth and Inchcolm! :D Gorgeous scenery! You both are like kids, exactly how I look from the outside on my roadies! Aye! Wonderful place, thank you! Capt. of the good old Blackthorne
Haha yes we get very excited by these wee trips :)
Another excellent video Steve.....so many beautiful places near you & easy to get to so that you can have a day out & get some wonderful fresh air & scenery. Thanks for taking us along on these adventure.....really enjoy it! (P.S. - I know a foggy town.....lol)
Haha love a foggy town! You are spot on with the fresh air - so much of it we had to lie down when we got home! Thanks so much Bob!
Thank you for uploading the video. I never heard of this small island before.
Glad to share it with you, cheers for watching!
Your channel came on my feed the other week, now I can't stop watching your videos, another brilliant video well done and keep up the good work
Thanks so much, welcome aboard! :)
Brilliant, always wanted to see that, now I have and want to go and see it for myself!
Sorry I waited until the last weekend, now you have a very long wait! Cheers for watching :)
Beautiful, impressive and stunning views. Love the music accompaniment.
never thought on that but you would 100% be correct on the bridges at least of that size, also never knew you could visit that little island or that there was a charter that ran to it for the public will for sure make a point of visiting within the next few yrs when in the direct area next
Oh please do! It’s a great wee trip and like I say, it’s hard to believe you can do so much in only 3 hours!
I know technically there are other bridges alongside them but the Tyne in Newcastle has
High level bridge 1847
Tyne bridge 1925
Millennium bridge 2001
Just back from Inchcolm on Monday there. Gutted we couldn't explore as much as you managed - the gulls were so protective of their chicks so we couldn't get anywhere near the west or east parts of the island. Will definitely need come back later in the year.
Ohhh they can be vicious eh? Never experienced it there though, I've been very lucky
I really enjoyed that video Steve. I was fortunate enough to travel on The Maid of the Forth and explore Inchcolm with my family a couple of weeks ago and it was an absolutely brilliant day out. I’ve watched quite a few of your videos since this one and am already planning a few more days out for next year having done so.
Hi Steve and Alicja! I watching this video on16/02/2024. Its very beautiful there and of course the bridges are excellent! Another trip to go on the list! Thanks! 👌🏴🇮🇪🙋😁
What a great day out so close to Edinburgh. Just a gorgeous island to explore. Shame on me, I have only been to Edinburgh once a gazillion years ago. So, it really helps me to follow along on your escapades on google maps. When the pandemic is over and I can travel again, I think should have a complete itinerary for a trip to Scotland - thank you kindly. Cheers!
Ha you're very welcome! And get yourself here soon :)
Cool trip round the island you haven't changed much in 40 years cracking picture
👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🦄😁✌️🤞
Thank you :)
15:35 Thanks for that brilliant pic of three bridges from three different centuries.
been just binge-watching your videos ever since lockdown has started here in Aberdeen. Makes me so excited to start making little trips once things calm down again xx
Thanks so much Jennifer! Oh yeah, I've really come to appreciate the little trips :)
Such a lovely video. Really love the mix of facts, beautiful shots and general helpful information! Beautiful work
Thanks for the kind words :)
Hi Steve & Alicja thanks for the great video on the trip to Inchcolm Island 😊 hoping to take my wife & step daughter to Edinburgh next summer & will definitely book that trip 👍🏴
What a great trip Steve, will have to do that one someday, fantastic view of `The Bridge` from the boat. Your videos just get better and better, Historic Scotland should be paying you for these travelogues, really informative. ATB Dave.
Thanks so much Dave! Maybe I should link them in the video and try get a few quid :D Aye, please do that trip when it opens up again next season - especially around May with the wee puffins!
The view of the Forth rail bridge from water level makes the bridge look absolutely incredible. I must make an effort to view it at such close proximity. As before, thank you for making the video. Very interesting and enjoyable. 👏👏👍😎
Yes Steve
Some beautiful shots on this one. I've been in and around the River Fourth most of my life and it's great to see the view from this Island. Great stuff.
Cheers! Looking forward to getting out to the isle of May as well as soon as restrictions ease to see the puffins!
Thank you for another wonderful video. Your videos are always such a pleasure to watch.
Thanks so much, that’s super appreciated and makes all the hard work piecing them together worth it!
Another great video! you both got many amazing shots. My favourite was the one at 6:40 Great work!
Cheers Jack! Yeah, got lucky with timing for that shot :)
@@steve-marsh i would say more skill than luck 😉
@@jacks222 I’ll settle for a mix of both, cheers :)
having lived in Edinburgh for 30 years and now left it was great to see this, sadly I never done it , regards
Cheers Allan! You’ll just need to come back!
Keep doing these videos Steve, they're really good.
Thanks so much! Really glad you enjoy, itching to get out there again and make some more :)
Wow Amazing Magical Spooky that was a real treat I can’t wait to go back and see the bridges and the views from the island
Cheers Jim! :)
Beautiful!
Happy memories of past trips on Maid of the Forth, with companions now gone...thank you so much. Lovely video.
Aww I’m so glad to bring back some nice memories! Thank you!
Cracking little trip! I look forward to being able to come back to Edinburgh, and see all these lovely little places!
Ohhh I hope that happens soon Tom! Cheers for watching :)
Been there done that. Held a stick over my head so that the black-backed gulls couldn't get to me. The rail bridge is my favourite.
Ohhh they’re scary when they swoop! Agree about that beautiful bridge!
A beautifully paced and very sensitively done video which captures the mood so well. Enjoyed it tremendously, having visited North Berwick and also the Fife peninsula but never in between, if you know what I mean.
Thanks so much Georg! Glad to show you the island and fingers crossed I'll get to some of the others this year too! All the best!
Another wonderful video! Absolutely breathtaking once again.
Thanks so much!
Love your videos. Thanks for this one! Can’t wait to try this trip
Aww thanks Margaret! Yes, please do this one next season! It’s a great trip, but be sure to book lat minute when you have a guarantee of the weather :)
@@steve-marsh thanks Steve. I want to move to Scotland but have been curtailed in our intention to search locations due to covid. Your videos draw me ever closer 😀
First went to Inchcolm in the Fifties on a Edinburgh primary school visit. In those days you got a wee boat from Aberdour beach. Been back many times inc taking my daughter for a day's trip and picnic. Magical place !
Magical indeed, totally agree! Wow, the journey there used to be so different, but I bet the island itself hasn't changed much :) Thanks so much for watching.
Wonderful team effort Steve. Another stunning video. As I say, in a different league. I've brought many people to South Queensferry on the Edinburgh Bus Tours 3 Bridges Tour, but have never actually been on the boat, so great to get to see the trip. Many thanks.
And wonderful feedback! Thanks so much Julian! Really appreciate it :)
Another awesome trip! Thank you!
Thanks for brightening a dull day...look forward to the next
Cheers Dave - on the look out for the next adventure as we speak!
What an absolutely stunning video, everything about it was perfect. The best thing on RUclips. I am lucky to live on the edge of Dartmoor, which is also stunning, but my heart still lies in Scotland, where I use to live before moving to Dartmoor
Thanks so much for watching and really appreciate the feedback! Oh I'd love to get down to Dartmoor soon, could do some cracking videos there - heard a lot about it from my brother from when he was in the marines, so the closest I've been was Lympstone, but that was wayyy too long ago to mention :)
@@steve-marsh This is a video I found of the new cycle/walkway from Topsham to Exmouth passing the Lympstone Barracks where your brother was stationed. ruclips.net/video/dJnt5q8XWr0/видео.html I have done this many times.
@@sandraholmes7002 Amazing, thank you! I'll watch this when I'm home and also note it in my travel ideas book :)
Did this trip last year as part of the 3 bridges tour from city centre and it was a beautiful sunny day. Have some cracking photos of the day. Did not get off boat so the video of the island is great and I will definitely go back
Glad to hear you had good weather for it! Thanks for watching and coming ashore with us :)
Another great video of yous. My god this took me back about 55years when I went here with school, o how I wish I could turn clock back when everything was simple. Keep up the good work love these. Happy days Steve thank you so much.xx
Thanks Margaret! I bet that island hasn’t changed much! Happy New Year to you! 😊
HI Steve, Im in New Zealand and I just love your videos. I never new Scotland was such a beautiful place
Hey Alf! Thanks so much mate! I lived in Devonport for a couple of years when I was younger :)
Hi Steve, just back from Edinburgh and did this trip on your recommendation. It was absolutely brilliant and thanks for top tips. Keep up the good work. Kind regards to you both.
Steve, thanks for another fascinating video of your travels.
I've seen the islands in the Firth in the background of many pictures and films about the Forth bridges and the Rosyth naval dockyard, but didn't know there were visits to one of them. What a fascinating place and how "wild" it seems, yet within view of a great city.
I can understand why you remember your family visits there as a youngster, and like to revisit it now.
I guess some of the Service personnel stationed in those barrack blocks long term might have felt rather differently -"brassed off" with being within sight of, yet so remote from the fleshpots of "Auld Reekie"!
I recall the ferry slipway at South Queensferry from a family walking holiday in the Highlands in 1964, when we drove from London to Strathpeffer, though the first bridge must have been almost completed then. Having spent the previous night at a B&B in Edinburgh New Town, we drove out there and waited in the queue of cars in the shadow of the great railway bridge to cross on the ferry and continue our journey north, which while very picturesque at times, on the roads of the day took us quite a lot longer than we'd anticipated.
What a wonderful trip that sounds, would love to have had the opportunity to take the ferry from QueensFERRY! Haha so true about being based on the islands and being able to see the city lights - would have been like on Alcatraz :D There are also great trips to the Isle of May - I'm waiting until early next year to do that one again when the puffins are back on dry land, will make a video when the time comes! Cheers Hugh!
@@steve-marsh Our drive to Scotland in 1964 was indeed memorable. My Dad was a member of the AA (he drove thousands of miles a year as the South of England representative of one of the last surviving Manchester Textile manufacturers,) so if we were planning a long drive on holiday, he'd apply for an AA "itinerary" which came as a booklet of stapled together strip maps, with the same kind of instructions printed along the side as you get from a SatNav now "Bear left at roundabout, take the AXXX", etc. Ours always began at the Well Hall roundabout on the South Circular. You could chose from a "direct" or a "scenic" route, and the "scenic" one was that which we used to get to Scotland. By that time I was old enough to take charge of this important role as "navigator"!
It was this that advised us to use the Queensferry crossing, though as it was 1964, it would soon have had to be updated as the first Forth road bridge was opened in the September of that year, and presumably the ferry would not have lasted very much longer after that.
Improved roads, many new Motorways, and better car design might make travelling easier, faster and more comfortable nowadays, but I always look back on those holiday drives to Cornwall, the Lake District and North Wales as well as this longest one to Scotland with some nostalgia.
@@hughrainbird43 I'm not surprised, your comments certainly bring back a wonderful insight into a bygone era, much like reading a Bill Bryson book! It really does show how some things were so much better before technology arrived, really liked the sound of the AA itinerary and would much rather travel that way today! My parents crossed the Forth Road Bridge on its opening day and their photos of it look incredible!
@@steve-marsh Thanks, Steve, your videos often recall memories of my own travels, especially in the most beautiful parts of Scotland.
It's as much the people you travel with as the journeys themselves, and I've been lucky that my parents took me on such memorable holidays when I was young, and that I've been able to take fascinating trips with groups of friends since.
On the subject of technology, I'm sure my father would not have tolerated driving and being dictated to by a SatNav for very long!
If a camper van doesn't rattle you're either deaf or stationary.
Lovely documentary
Again thanks and regards from Loutraki Greece
Haha absolutely :) cheers!
Kalynikta (Good night) from Greece
Another gorgeous trip, Steve! Everything about it was just stunning. Especially the abbey. Thanks so much for sharing your trip with me. It looks like great fun.
Very enjoyable. Thank you.
Thanks!
Great Video, thanks very much. 👍🏻
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant video again Steve - keep 'em coming! Can't wait to be back in Scotland to follow in your footsteps for some of these excursions :)
Thanks so much! Good luck getting back here soon :)
Ha e watched a few of your videos now and have liked all and subscribed🙂 but just wanted to say love them all, particularly the pic of you with your family, am going to binge watch them all now 👍
Yvonne - thank you so much for the support!!! I really appreciate it and it gives me plenty motivation to get out there and make more :)
Excellent video - highly professional - but with a light touch that made it a delight to watch.
Thanks so much John! Always try to hit that very balance, so your feedback is great to hear!
Great pic of you and your family all those years ago
Thanks so much :)
What a fantastic video. A perfect watch with my morning coffee.
Cheers Darin!
Appreciate the work you do in your videos, really informative and well put together.
Thanks so much Robert! Yeah, this one took a bit of time to piece together, so really nice to get your kind feedback!
Another fascinating day trip video. Loved the family memories and specially comparing the old photo to present day. The Abbey conjured up thoughts of what it must have been like back in the day. 👍
Thanks so much for watching and your message! Yeah, it certainly brings back a lot of memories every time I return!
Thank you! A great video about a little island.
Very interesting. I never knew about there. Always thought Maid of the Forth was mostly for tourists but am definitely going to do that when I can. :)
Yeah, I had the same impression too, especially as we used to go there on our own wee boat. But genuinely, it's an awesome trip and well worth the money!
took the same trip back in the mid 70s -hasnt changed a bit! i used to live in dalgety bay one time my dad took us out in his wee boat but it hit something hard in the water 1/2 way to the bridge so we turned back were very lucky
Used to live on The Wynd in Dalbeattie Bay as a kid myself!
Smashing as always Steve. Hope to do this trip sometime when things have calmed down a bit. Thanks for the inspiration, pal.
Muchas Gracias to you!
Another great adventure, it sparked some memories. Not sure how good my memory is, but I think we may have gone to a barbeque there, when my dad was based at HMS Lockinvar (I think it's now that marina by the road bridge). It was a good 50 years ago and I was only about 5 or 6. One thing I do remember... It didn't rain...
If it didn't rain, you've already won! :) Yes, I think I saw some buildings at Port Edgar from the old HMS Lochinvar! You've got a better memory than me :)
Hi Steve Thanks a lot for sharing Wonderfull video of this tour. We really enjoyed verywell. Wish I could go there and stay over night there. Keep it up. We enjoy youe all the videos
We'd love to stay there overnight too, sneak to the far end of the island and set up camp :)
