Report
a Sighting
If you are fortunate to observe a live whale, dolphin or porpoise from a local headland, bay or while out at sea, we would love to hear about your encounter.
You can report any cetacean or basking shark sightings to us here through the “Report a Sighting” link on the home page or on our mobile Reporting App, which will enable us validate your record, which will be added to the all-Ireland sighting database that has been maintained by the IWDG under its sighting scheme over the past 30 years.
Your observations will directly contribute to our building knowledgebase on how and when these animals use our waters.
