There was was still some leftover swell from the last days as we sailed out into the bay. Despite spotting many seabirds, we unfortunately didn't see any other wildlife during the day and so we offered everyone complimentary tickets. The evening tour did however encounter a pod of 10 very social white-beaked dolphins, bow-riding and doing multiple jumps!
After multiple days of bad weather and cancelled tours, we left the harbour and navigated into the beautiful bay. We saw many birds and several people on the boat seemed convinced of having seen a whale fluke, but it was not possible to confirm the sighting, and therefore we offered everyone complimentary tickets, so they can join us another time.

Our morning tour saw 6 white-beaked dolphins and various birds, including puffins and northern gannets. By afternoon, the sea had calmed. We spotted a pod of 6-7 white-beaked dolphins frequently near the boat and observed about 20 northern gannets plunge diving. In the evening, despite light rain, we quickly found a playful pod of 7-10 white-beaked dolphins and two more on our way home!
