Friday 29th September

After some very strong wind this week we were back out with two Ocean Discovery trips today. There was still a hefty swell running which looked spectacular against the coast. This morning we found small pods of common dolphins in several places as well as harbour porpoises and lots of seals. There were lots of gannets showing us where to look. This afternoon things were rather quieter, but we were lucky to find a big group of common dolphins as we were sailing southwards from St Loy. They briefly investigated us but didn’t seem too interested. We had great views of an Arctic skua as we were sailing back into the bay.
