===To the island=== There are two ways to get to Lundy, depending on the time of year. In the summer months (April to October) visitors are carried on the [[Landmark Trust]]'s own vessel, [[MS Oldenburg|MS ''Oldenburg'']], which sails from both [[Bideford]] and [[Ilfracombe]]. Sailings are usually three days a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, with additional sailings on Wednesdays during July and August. The voyage takes on average two hours, depending on ports, tides and weather. The ''Oldenburg'' was first registered in [[Bremen]], Germany, in 1958 and has been sailing to Lundy since being bought by the Lundy Company Ltd in 1985.<ref name="msoldenburg">{{cite web |title=MS ''Oldenburg'' |work=CaptainsVoyage |url= http://captainsvoyage.7.forumer.com/a/ms-oldenburg_post2232.html |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20090615043933/http://captainsvoyage.7.forumer.com/a/ms-oldenburg_post2232.html |archive-date=15 June 2009}}</ref> In the winter months (November to March) the island is served by a scheduled [[helicopter]] service from [[Hartland Point]].
