Yes, puffins fly. They can fly at speeds of up to 55 miles per hour and do so by rapidly beating their wings to achieve lift. They can beat their wings up to 400 beats per minute.

Puffins fly in the same manner as all the other birds that can fly in the world. They take advantage of their hollow bones, light bones, and the properties of lift and air flow.
