Fin whale morning!

Today we had a great start to the day! Smooth seas and a Fin whale mum and its calf. Despite being a bit shy they showed themselves really well a few times 😀

To finish the trip a friendly group of Common dolphins came to bid us farewell together with a group of chatty Common terns.

Stay tuned for updates from our tours 🙂
