Dolphin Holidays |
Dolphin HolidaysWhales World Wide is the overseas whale and dolphin watching arm of Whale Watch West Cork. We specialise in organising whale and dolphin holidays, taking small parties of dedicated whale and dolphin watchers to different parts of the world to experience first hand the special behaviour of whales and dolphins in their natural habitats. Imagine yourself being surrounded by a group of curious Common Dolphins, bow riding just a few feet from you as you stand at the front of the boat. Watch Bottlenose Dolphins jump and cartwheel in the stern wave. Marvel at large groups of Pacific White-sided Dolphins following the boat or pods of Risso's Dolphins spy hopping. If your idea of a perfect holiday is to spend time dolphin watching or observing the behaviour and photographing dolphins in their natural habitat then accompanied dolphin holidays with Whales World Wide, the overseas dolphin watching arm of Whale Watch West Cork is the answer. We organise trips around the world to watch dolphins and whales, close up and in their natural environment to which they are so well adapted. Dolphin holidays with Whales World Wide are fun, informative and fulfilling. Dolphin Watching HolidaysWe specialise in dolphin watching holidays in several destinations around the world, specially selected for their diversity of dolphins and whales and the opportunities they provide for viewing and photographing a variety of marine wildlife in addition to the unique marine mammals of that region. Each year we select a destination for our dolphin watching holidays based on species diversity and recent sightings records. Proceeds from our dolphin watching holidays are used to fund ongoing cetacean research and conservation projects on a national and international basis. Dolphin Watching Holidays

Did you know...?Proposals tabled by the United Nations and the North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission to put in place lasting protection for deep sea habitats and sea mounts has recently been scuppered by the pirate whaling nation Iceland. Talks to introduce a moratorium on unregulated deep water bottom trawling, a practice which is incredibly damaging to the deep sea marine environment, have recently been taking place. Even nations such as Japan, Canada and Spain, not known for their enlightened conservation policies, were prepared to accept a compromise which would have lead to a degree of protection for deep sea environments, especially cold water corals and sea mounts. Iceland however, was the only country to block the consensus that could have been reached and push for a continued destruction of deepwater marine habitats through bottom trawling. Habitats that harbour fish like the Orange Roughy which are believed to live as long as 200 years. The deep sea marine environment is very easily damaged by activities such as bottom trawling and some habitats may never recover. The call for a moratorium on deep water trawling has been supported by a recent study published in the acclaimed journal Science, that if we do not substantially change the way in which we manage our oceans then we may see a collapse of many commercial fisheries around the globe as early as 2048. cetaceans (dolphins and porpoises) annually worldwide.

Some notes from our visitors...
Hi Nic,Ian here from the IWDG course on the Cape and our trip with you a couple of days after that. Just wanted to write a quick note of thanks to you for a world class boat trip both times! Looking forward to seeing you again when the humpbacks come in. I'll have my bag packed!
Until then.
PS. Did you see any of those Mako sharks that were spotted off Cornwall?
We were out on one of your trips at the end of August. There was a bit of a chop on, but you found us whales nevertheless. Brilliant! The trip was complete with the frolics of some 20 or 30 dolphins for quite a time alongside and around the boat, so we couldn't have asked for more. Wonderful day and thanks.
