Where in England or the UK would you see dolphins swimming in the sea most of the year round and where?

Question

I am wanting to know where i can go see dolphins around the UK coastlines, or if there has been any sightings of dolphins.

Answer 1

The Moray firth is home to about 130 Bottlenose Dolphins. They are normally seen as small "bands" of six or seven animals comprising two or three females and their calves. The males tend to be solitary and are not often present.
The Moray Firth Dolphins are one of only a few known groups, in British waters. In the summer months they often frequent inshore waters where they can be easily seen, to the delight of visitor and resident alike.
Bottlenose Dolphins, though they may resemble fish, are small whales and are warm blooded animals belonging, like ourselves, to the group of animals called mammals.They breathe air like mammals and bear live young suckling them for up to four years after birth.
They live for up to 50 years and can grow to a length of 4 metres.The Moray Firth Dolphins are some of the largest found anywhere in the world.
The best places to see the Dolphins are on land.
There is an excellent Dolphin and Seal Watch Centre just north of the Kessock Bridge where you can observe and listen to them, in the narrows between North and South Kessock.

Answer 2

I used to live on the coast in Wales, there were several families of dolphins in Cardigan Bay, you can see them off-shore most of the year but it is better to go in the summer when they come right inshore after the mackeral, they sea seems to boil when the mackeral are in close. The small village of Fairbourne, Gwynedd would be ideal. I used to be postmaster there so if you go say hello to those in the post office for me.

Answer 3

There are dolphins all around the coast of the British Isles. I saw some off the coast of Torquay in Devon.

Answer 4

Wales for sure during the summer months. I have witnessed a few in the Cardigan Bay area of west Wales. I even got close to one on some rocks at a place called Shell Island in Llanbedr. Good luck!

Answer 5

The Cornish Coast, especially around the Mineca Theatre (outdoor theatre).

Answer 6

I can't say for definite, but I am pretty sure there aren't any dolphins around the coast of the UK - the water would be too cold.
