Cornish Fishing, a fishing club in Falmouth, is excited to promote the Falmouth Wildlife Trips event. This event provides a unique opportunity for fishing enthusiasts to experience the rich marine biodiversity of Falmouth Bay and its surrounding area.
Falmouth Bay is a true marine biodiversity hotspot, and what better way to witness its wonders than from a boat? Imagine watching Cormorants effortlessly diving and resurfacing in search of their next meal. Picture super pods of Common Dolphins frolicking and jumping alongside the boat, creating a spectacle that will leave you in awe. These are just a few of the incredible sights you can expect throughout the year.
Even in the winter, you can stay warm and comfortable in the heated crew room while sipping on a hot drink. From there, you can still witness the local wildlife in all its glory. As the seasons change, so does the marine life. Spring brings warmer seas and blooming flowers, attracting a plethora of species, including the famous Basking Sharks. These giants can grow up to a staggering 12 meters! In addition to Basking Sharks, other shark species like the Blue, Porbeagle, and Thresher can also be found in the area. The abundance of plankton also lures Sandeels, which serve as a vital food source for various fish, animals, and birds.
Summer is a particularly exciting time for wildlife enthusiasts. It marks the return of the Atlantic BlueFin Tuna, Minke Whales, Sunfish (the largest bony fish in the world), and large Barrel Jellyfish. Witnessing these creatures in their natural habitat is an experience that will leave you speechless. Autumn brings its own charm, as it's the perfect time to witness the largest Grey Seal colonies on the South coast of Cornwall. Imagine catching a glimpse of pure white seal pups born on remote beaches and hidden caves. The season also sees the migration of birds and the resurgence of Otters in the rich wooded estuaries of the Fal and Helford rivers. Falmouth Bay is also home to a diverse range of aquatic sea birds and underwater species, adding to the vibrant tapestry of wildlife.
For those seeking a more adventurous experience, Falmouth Wildlife Trips provide an exclusive dive snorkeling trip. This unique opportunity allows you to interact directly with Basking Sharks, Dolphins, Sunfish, Blue Sharks, and Bluefin Tuna in the water. It's an adrenaline-fueled adventure that will create memories to last a lifetime.
