If anybody cares to holiday in this neck of the woods there currently daily sightings in the bay.

Oh brilliant your Lordship. That does bring back memories of swimming with 'Freddy' the Dolphin up on the northeast coast and a few trips diving in the Red Sea hanging over the rail with a video camera filming schools of them bow chasing. Ah, the good old days. Thanks for sharing that and stirring my yearning again.

Nice pictures and pleased to learn that the fishermen have not ensnared all of them in the drift nets.

that looks amazing, I am in bude in september will be well worth the 50 mile drive to have a look i suspect that they will have gone by then.

Totally agree, we haven't seen many common dolphins at all along the south west coast for the last three or four years. We did see about twenty+ Atlantic Dolphins in Plymouth Sound the day they sunk the HMS Scilla in Whitsand Bay, never seen any since

The excitement on board never changes when we are joined by them it don't matter if it's just one or twenty the excitement never dies.


What was noticeable this trip was the lack of basking sharks, we only saw one and he was a youngster no more than eight foot long.
