Lucky to be just the four of us in the end going out with super knowledgeable Harbour Master! · via Google [John T Law](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/101035530183074802579/reviews) ★★★★★ Really excellent trip to see the dolphins on Saturday 2nd May. Lovely small group trip. Highly knowledgeable and engaging skipper. 5*! · via Google [jo finn](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/118281610846645347873/reviews) ★★★★★ We had a great trip. We were due to go on the Friday evening but the skipper called and advised the weather would be against us and offered us the following morning. What a great decision the water was calm, the sun was out and there was a gentle breeze. Very knowledgeable skipper, we saw dolphins, seabirds, seal’s and a great view of both Fort George and Chanonry Point. I will definitely go back. · via Google [Kleio Chronicles](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/118290046271756571205/reviews) ★★★★★ Excellent small boat trip out to Chanonry point. Dolphins, seals, gulletmots, gannets, gulls.
