Whale Watching

Posted on: 2nd September, 2024

Nic Slocum is a qualified zoologist and a passionate advocate for marine conservation and a leading exponent of responsible whale watching. Nic and the Whale Watch West Cork team conduct boat based whale and dolphin watching tours departing daily from Baltimore Harbour on board Voyager and The Liscannor Star whenever the weather is suitable.

With over 30 years’ experience of watching marine wildlife from boats Nic has appeared as an expert commentator on both radio and television championing marine wildlife watching in Ireland. The clear, unpolluted waters off Southwest Ireland are a feeding ground for some of the largest marine mammals on earth and one of the best places in Europe for watching whales, dolphins and other marine wildlife.

These tours frequently stop for refreshments at Cape Clear Island, Ireland’s most southerly Irish speaking community.

Nic may be contacted directly by email or phone.
