We went out on the rib coastal, what an amazing experience as my coworker had never done anything like it before, its was amazing seeing the grey seals but most of all, all the dolphins. We would highly recommend it well worth every penny. Thank you.

This was a fantastic experience, although it we didn’t manage to see a lot of dolphins, but however Glen I think his name was, was very knowledgeable about the different wildlife of birds etc we did see, also good at keeping us happy with a good few jokes, great guy! I reccomend travelling with or without family, even toddlers, my 2 year old loved it.
