Join us on board our research yacht, Silurian, as we depart from Tobermory (Isle of Mull) to monitor the rich Hebridean seas. This unique eco-tourism expedition is like no other in the UK; explore the wilds of the Hebrides, have some awesome wildlife experiences, make fantastic friends and join a community of people getting directly involved in the conservation of whales, dolphins, porpoises and basking sharks.

This expedition survey falls in the middle of our field season so we will be monitoring for both resident populations alongside seasonal visitors.

Rendezvous in Tobermory should allow for the monitoring of the seas off the Southern Hebrides, the Argyll Islands, the Small Isles and Skye.

Summer in the Hebrides is an awe inspiring time. The daylight hours are long and nature takes full advantage of this with creatures foraging to feed their young and lay down fat stores for the winter months ahead.
