“We were taken out on the RIB boat by a lovely guide called Joel on Sunday 29 September. He was so passionate and knowledgeable about all the local wildlife, pointing out different species of rare birds, getting us to the whales quickly and telling us a lot of facts. He made the experience so exciting and you could just tell he absolutely loves his job. We managed to see 5 humpback whales, including a mum and baby which is very rare to see! And I saw a pod of white beaked dolphins but no one else spotted them as we were going too quick! It was such a brilliant experience…”
