Seal pups in south Wales
Autumn brings the start of seal pupping season here in Wales and small white fluffy pups begin appearing along our coastlines
Friday 15th September 2017
Atlantic grey seal pup

Atlantic grey seals have their pups during autumn and winter. Here in Wales pups start appearing along our coastlines from September onwards.

 

Mother seals give birth to just one pup a year. They are born on land with white fluffy fur, and stay out of the water for the first few weeks of their lives.

 

Read on to find out more about these enigmatic creatures and what to do if you discover a seal in need of help.

Our dolphins: wild and free as they should be
We've had fantastic dolphin sightings on our trips recently so it seemed apt that this next blog post explains more about these amazing animals and our joyful encounters with them.

common dolphin jumps alongside our boat on a trip to Worms Head Gower

It’s incredible how the presence of another species can make us humans so delighted and overwhelmed. But that’s exactly what dolphins do. It’s the most breath-taking feeling watching a dolphin swimming along next to you, looking into their eyes, and seeing them look back into yours, knowing there’s another intelligent being there.

 

We feel privileged that we get to encounter these spirited animals so often on our trips. Short-beaked common dolphins visit the Gower coast every year in the warmer months. Last year we saw them in every month from May to October. This year we got our first sightings in June and we’re still seeing them now. Sometimes we see small groups of 3 or 4 animals, other times we may encounter hundreds! The most common group size we see is around 20 individuals.
