Dolphins at Westport

Just wondering if anyone else saw the school of Dolphins off Westport last Saturday? What a wonderful sight on a beautiful day. Now who needs to do anything when you see things like that! Lasts a life time!

mrm, I was walking on the beach Machrihanish end when I saw them leaping out of the water , it was a beautiful sight indeed. Think this must be about the 4th time this year I have seen them .

More to the point, did any of you have a camera?

Was out at the The Old Clubhouse last Saturday evening and heard people speaking about them at Machrihanish. Why when I have my camera are they never about!

Well that is great news! I saw them too a few months back and when I told people they all scoffed and told me I had too much of the Springbank. I've put up with ribbing all this time as well!

We saw them in 2006 as well, first of all just off Muasdale beach, then later in the day from the Gigha ferry, a fantastic sight, never to be forgotten!

Saw them go up the beach and jumpin around that afternoon, then was in the water later in the day when they came back up the way, couple of them even came in and surfed a few waves with us..pure dead brilliant..have had a couple of sessions with the dolphins up and down the coast this year, you just never get over how amazing they are.
