Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch (MWDW) has been at the forefront of marine mammal science on the Isle of Man since 2006.
We work voluntarily year round to ensure the safeguarding of whales, dolphins, and porpoises (cetaceans) in Manx territorial waters through non-invasive research and public awareness efforts.

Gorgeous flat calm water today, lovely sighting conditions. Currently training our summer interns in land surveys at Port St Mary, watching lots of harbour porpoise.
Robbie the Risso's and I finished the harbour2harbour walk, and quite pleased with my time, too! 😁

If you can spare a pound or two for our great charity to support me on my harbour2harbour walk today that would be amazing! It's part of my #walk1000miles challenge and the link to my page is above.
I'll be accompanied on my walk today by Robbie the Risso's! Say hi if you see us! 🙂
