Thursday 22nd June

We had  another long day today with a Discovery Voyage in the morning and an Ocean Discovery in the afternoon. This morning we got the first good views we’ve had this year of a couple of ocean sunfish! One was quite large and skittish, but the small one lay at the surface and didn’t seem bothered by our presence. We also saw lots more common dolphins who gave us some lovely encounters, and also some grey seals. This afternoon the dolphins were harder to find than they have been for the last few days, but we found some eventually spotted from a long way off with some feeding seabirds. They were a mixture of adults and juveniles and they spent a long time with us as we sailed. We also saw two grey seals hauled out, including “Kelp” and a juvenile.
