Sea Safaris

Join us for one of our ever‑popular Sea Safari trips and experience Devon’s wildlife in its natural habitat. We start inside Britain’s first National Marine Park, then trace the spectacular coastline in search of dolphins, seals and—season permitting—basking sharks.

Devon wildlife at sea – dolphins, seals and seasonal pelagics

🐬 Wildlife First

Skippered by locals who know the signs—bird activity, tide lines and temperature breaks—to maximise encounters with dolphins, seals and (in season) basking sharks.
