Dolphin watching in Scotland

I am going to Scotland this August and hope to find a couple of good sites for dolphin watching. Have heard that the Moray Firth is good, but can anyone suggest other sites, on either side of the Scottish mainland, south of Inverness that might be a good area to try on the way up or back down?

Re: Dolphin watching in Scotland

hiya,
there are loads of places to go dolphin watching round Scotland. The Moray Firth is good, as you said, because it has a large resident population of bottlenoses and they are often visible from the shore. However, we get Porpoise and dolphin all round the coast, and there is no shortage of wildlife boat trips to take you to find them. I'd probably recommend finding one of them you liek the look of (a quick web search should help you out) and going out on the water for a day.
