Sightings yesterday included 2 or 3 risso dolphins (near Fastnet), a small number of harbour porpoises (south of Sherkin) and a minke whale (Gascanane Sound / Illaunbrock.
What a day! A trip out to the Fastnet in beautiful sunny conditions, diving the rock with brilliant viz & teaming with life/colours plus a seal to provide a little interaction. Then we rescued a rhib that got propped followed by providing a hardboat for helicopter exercise and finally a dive with at least 5 octopus..... and all with a nice bunch of diving friends.

Great viz, great company and great diving (Kowloon twice, Fastnet Lighthouse, U260, Whale Rock, Gascanane Sound and the Kedges) plus of course the pods of dolphins all helped to make it a great August bank holiday diving weekend.
