Whale Watch
Seaquest Southwest, part of our Whale Watch Project, is a citizen science marine recording project that Falmouth Marine Conservation group run on behalf of Cornwall Wildlife Trust. We meet usually the first Sunday of the month 11am-1pm (check our social media), meet us at the end of the car park at Pendennis Point as we survey for marine wildlife. Sometimes we’re lucky enough to see dolphins, porpoises and even a seal on black rock. No worries if you've never been to a Seaquest before! We'll be happy to help. Just bring your own binoculars if you have a pair (if not we have spares for you), and a warm jumper just in case it's windy.
Upcoming Seaquest dates:
Sunday 5th November
Sunday 3rd December
