WHAT WILL YOU SEE..?

In the main wildlife months our trips see regular sightings of Dolphins, Minke whales, and Basking sharks. We see Puffins and many other seabirds on all our trips between May and July, and most AquaXplore trips throughout the season include Sea Eagles and Golden Eagles, together with Grey and Common seals. Occasionally we are fortunate to see more exotic creatures - such as Sunfish , Sperm Whales or even Orca/killer whales!

 

Dont forget - to give you the best experience possible our half day tours are unique in covering a distance of 35 to 40 miles so you get the best chance to encounter a great range of wildlife!
