Dolphin Watching Experience
An exhilarating wildlife watching boat trip to view the best of what the Moray Firth has to offer.
You will start your Dolphin Watching Boat Trip with a short introduction then you will board the high speed RIB heading out into the Inner Moray Firth where we hope to encounter the resident colony of Bottlenose Dolphins. Also look out for Harbour Porpoise, Common and Grey Seals and the occasional Minke Whale. Cruising around the base of the spectacular cliff coastline, you'll be able to view up close the bird colony set amongst the imposing war fortifications before you head further out to sea.
An informative commentary is given throughout with refreshments provided.
All of our gift experiences are presented in an attractive red case with "Congratulations - you are the lucky recipient of a Well Wicked experience day" written on the front. You will also get a DVD featuring many of our experiences. Experience vouchers can be personalised if required.

Other Details
Warm clothing essential including sensible non-slip footwear. Wet weather gear, lifejackets, goggles and headbands are provided (compulsory). If conditions allow, the captain will use a hydrophone to listen to a variety of underwater sounds. Although we are fortunate to see a variety of wildlife on most of our trips we can never guarantee sightings 100%. The birds and animals we encounter are entirely wild - they are not fed or trained. Sometimes we must be content with just a glimpse or the knowledge that these animals are not there simply for our pleasure but are free to go about as they please.
