Absolute belter of a pic Snappy, very well done! We're looking at Scotland again next year, was that trip from Skye? And if it was, which would be a better trip in your opinion, from Mull or this one? (I won't get away with both if we do some island hopping lol)

Thanks PB. With this trip out of Skye we got closer to the WTE's as they put a fish out for them and they have clearly got a bit used to it. We also had a smaller boat with less people, they do have a few different boats though. I also like the other trip out of Oban, it has views of three castles and a light house. They both have plenty of sea birds with whales, dolphins, seals & porpoise etc as potential... it is pot luck which would be better on any day, I think they are out for a similar time and price. So, not much help

One of the Mull trips does that too, so I guess it'll depend where we decide to stay Ta for info
