The Clyde Dolphins!

Gourock
Dolphin Spotting & Clyde Scenery
Join us as we go looking for the local Clyde pod of dolphins, via our Dolphin Spotting & Clyde Scenery adventure, with an impressive 85% success rate!
We will be taking a scenic route heading toward Largs, all throughout where our local pod of dolphins have been recently spotted! Our trip will begin at James Watt Dock marina, and we will pass through Greenock and Gourock. Our planned route to find the dolphins will be passing the Cloch lighthouse, Inverkip marina and Skelmorlie up close from the riverside, then Knock Castle before we arrive at Largs, where the dolphins have most frequently been spotted, so they can join us at any point in our trip! Seals, porpoises and dolphins are all normal to see along this route, and we hope to have a wide range of wildlife join us! Passengers are invited to let our crew know if they have spotted any of the local wildlife, and we can keep watch! We will be sailing onboard our vessel Topcat, which has recently been renovated with a social layout, a brand new bar and indoor heating, and we will be supplying snacks and drinks (hot, cold and alcoholic!) from our recently improved menu. Please note this trip will last between 3-4 hours!
