A Nice “Tern” of Events!
The Local “Air Force” Come to Town! We’re not talking the RAF here, we’re talking terns! It’s been a long while since we saw our delightful little feathered friends over the firth, but today was got quite the showing. Around 20 or so terns, mixed in with some gulls, were hunting around Kilmuir most of…

A Day Full of Dolphins
Every sailing saw dolphins! Our resident girl Kesslet didn’t disappoint our passengers today, as she was present for all four sailings! First spotted out near the canal, Kesslet bee-lined straight for the boat after clocking us over at North Kessock. She even came for a short bow-ride before leaving us to hunt; something she has…
Dolphins Get Into The Dolphin Spirit
Fun in the Sun Over the past week, we have seen the return of young Charlie, Kesslet’s 9-year-old son, to the Kessock Channel for a bit of fun and mischief. Much like his mum was at that age, Charlie is incredibly energetic and social around boats, earning him the title of “urban dolphin”. He’s been…
Worthwhile in All Weather
Scottish Weather Never Guaranteed! Up here in the north of Scotland, we can almost never predict the weather, and sometimes even the Met Office gets a little confused! “Oh no,” we hear you cry, “but I booked on a day it was meant to be sunny! Now it’s raining!” It’s a very typical scenario, for…
All Paws On Deck!
Let Your Hound Join In The Fun! Planning a trip to Inverness in the coming weeks? Looking for something fun that everyone can do; even the dog? One thing we at Dolphin Spirit understand is an owner’s want (and sometimes even need!) to bring their hound everywhere they go. As most of us are dog…
Marvelous May Sightings
May Gets Off To A Splashing Start! The start of May has brought us some brilliant weather and the Moray Firth seems to have sprung alive! We’ve been seeing a lot of Kesslet aboard the Dolphin Spirit, but she isn’t the only visitor making our passengers “ooh” and “ahh” just now. Dolphin Mischief has been…

News on Kesslet’s Calf
The Bad News… Unfortunately we have some rather sad news about Kesslet’s latest calf, nicknamed “Kessickle”. On the afternoon of April 9th, our 4pm sailing encountered a rather sleepy Kesslet with her young calf around Meikle Mee. All seemed well then, with the youngster rather active around Kesslet as she rested after a long day…
