Gairloch - boat tour

3 August 2011

We got up and went for a walk above the hotel for some views over Loch Torridon. We then headed back to Gairloch with Kate and 2 different friends for the wildlife cruise. Our guide was a marine scientist so he knew heaps but unfortunately we still only saw 2 local dolphins and a few Grey seals- no puffins, no Basking sharks, no porposes, no otters and no whales : ( That evening we set off and camped beside a nice loch on our way to Inverness.

We spot some dolhins on our nature tour on Gairloch harbour


There were lots of seals hanging out on the rocks


We saw lots of birds but no puffins.


Kate and Karen a little disappointed as we didnt see the basking shark, minke whales or puffins we thought we would
