A few pictures from the past couple of days. Today the rain wasn't ideal but the sea state was good, and the wildlife more than made up for it. This afternoon we had a pod of around 50 dolphins alongside feeding common and Arctic terns, kittiwakes, and a few gannets for good measure.

We had two great trips today and saw dolphins, seals, and various seabirds on both. This afternoon was extra special though - at one of the sea eagle sites we visit, we spotted not one but two chicks. A wonderful end to a May that's been tricky weatherwise at times. Many thanks to Kevin & Fiona for sharing the photos.

Another fantastic picture taken by passenger Tim Stenton this afternoon of bottlenose dolphin, mother and calf.

What a weekend. 🎶

Luggerfest brought three days of music, food, incredible boats, and the kind of atmosphere that makes Ullapool feel like the best place on earth.

Shearwater Cruises sailed all 3 days, and we saved the best for last — a school of bottlenose dolphins to round off the weekend in style. Passengers absolutely loved it.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. See you next time !! 🐬
