Also some spectacular jellyfish action happening out there at the moment and great sunlit views right down into the kelp forests... The kids are getting very good at identifying potential future snorkel spots following on form their series of snorkel sessions with Cal - really lovely to see how it is all fitting together in their minds.

Day 1 of Hope the Humpback’s visit to Ullapool High School!

This incredible, life-sized inflatable whale is so big that whole groups of kids can go inside for a look about at a time. Hoping to get everyone from both Ullapool schools and Scoriag primary in for a visit by the end of tomorrow.

Another trip out last week, this time with Daphnie

Another trip out last week, this time with Daphnie, who was out with Tania and Abbie. A trip out to Rhue, then a look up lochside. Also, a close encounter with a barrel jellyfish - the largest jellyfish we get in the UK, which can be up to 45 kg.

A nice trip out in Mada-Chuain yesterday with Joseph, Nina, Emma and Lackie. Got to see some seals, lift a creel and check out some crabs, and after Emma helped Janis pop ashore and collect some plastics we spotted washed up on the shore, she became the skipper and drove the boat too!
