You can celebrate National Marine Week with a free Family Fun Sea Watching Event, in Scarborough, on Sunday.
Wild Eye, the art and nature programme celebrating Scarborough’s incredible wildlife and coastal environment, invites everyone to a free sea watching event along Scarborough’s Marine Drive in celebration of National Marine Week.
The event will take place from 11am to 3pm, at the shelter on Marine Drive.
One of those looking out will be Stuart Baines from the SeaWatch Foundation:
Scarborough is one of the best places on the English coast for spotting marine mammals. With over 350 sightings in the past year, it is a hotspot for viewing whales, dolphins, and porpoises. Visitors can often see a range of species from the delightful harbour porpoise to the majestic minke whale. Recently, even humpback whales have been making appearances.
Stuart agrees there are potentially some amazing creatures to be seen:
Bring your family for a fun day of learning and adventure! Experts from the Sea Watch Foundation, Scarborough Porpoise, and Citizen Fins will be on hand to help everyone identify and learn about these magnificent creatures. Equipped with binoculars, the experts will share information about spotting wildlife along the coast.
