We left Canna early this morning under very atmospheric dark skies and perfect sea conditions for spotting fins. Unfortunately we could still here the sonar, even louder than yesterday. Only one porpoise was heard on the sonar. We headed to an area called Hawes Bank where there is usually lots of cetacean activity, nothing!
The sonar did stop in the afternoon however still no cetaceans. The skies were amazing, and the views of the islands, stunning.
As we approached Tobermory, about 2pm, away from the more open water, we spotted a couple of harbour porpoises despite the sonar having returned. Two warships passed by the sound as we came in to anchor on the pontoon.
