Some moments on the water are simply unforgettable… and today we were lucky enough to experience one all over again.
Last October, we had an incredible encounter with a curious dolphin here at South Queensferry. It was one of those magical moments that stayed with us, and today, we couldn’t believe our luck when we met it again.
This time, the encounter felt even more special. For around 20 minutes, the dolphin swam alongside the group, weaving effortlessly between the kayaks, racing alongside us as we paddled, and playfully chasing us through the water. It was incredibly inquisitive, seemingly just as fascinated by us as we were by it.
Encounters like this are incredibly rare, and we never take them for granted. Watching such an intelligent wild dolphin choose to spend time around us is a privilege and a powerful reminder of how special these waters really are.
As always, we gave the dolphin plenty of space and allowed it to approach us on its own terms, ensuring the encounter remained respectful and entirely led by the dolphin.
Days like this remind us just how lucky we are to share these waters with such incredible wildlife.
Happy Adventuring!
