MS Oldenburg

A picture of the MS Oldenburg at the jetty on Lundy Island. Built in Germany in 1958 as a ferry for use in the Frisian Islands she now carries passengers and supplies from Ilfracombe to Lundy 20 miles off the North Devon coast. Lundy is home to the first and only statutory Marine Nature Reserve in the UK and as such has a protected status leading to one of the most rich and diverse marine habitats in Europe.
