Sea Life Safari
Pictures speak louder than words for today’s post, as we head out on a sea life safari taking in uninhabited Atlantic islets and spectacular sections of the craggy coastline.
It’s an excellent excursion where we encounter large numbers of dolphins who follow us in a display of what our guide calls “bow riding”, as well as multiple sightings of seals, guillemots, razorbills, gannets and other seabirds. The sun shines, the Atlantic is calm and Michaela is able to capture some very decent shots…..

We sometimes underestimate England, don’t we? I guess it’s the “escaping the weather” thing…

There are three things that make people giddy – dolphins, sunflowers and the northern lights.
Phil & Michaela
Ha ha not sure that personally I would have sunflowers on my giddy list! Nothing against sunflowers but….

Hi Christie, it was a fabulous experience. We often do such trips on our travels so it was good to do this in our own country and see whats on our own doorstep
Christie
So true, sometimes we overlook the hidden gems we have right on our own doorstep🙂

We agree, we do these types of excursions on our travels so it was lovely to do this on our own country

Wonderful shots, Michaela. It made me feel like we were along for the ride and seeing the dolphins inches from the boat.
