“There’s a couple of noticeable facts that I’ve noticed, certainly paddle boarding and surfing: I’ve seen more dolphins this year for longer times. So the dolphins have hung about over a winter period. When you normally don’t see much activity, there’s been a lot of activity of dolphins. 

They normally come, in October they’ll start to disappear, then in April they’ll start to come back and you’ll see more activity. They’re probably there, but they’re not as active. So they’ve certainly been active. When I say active: porpoising out of the water, chasing fish, and they’ll always be active on the river mouth at the harbour. That’s definitely one thing that I’ve noticed this year has been a big change. Last year they were a little later as well, so there’s certainly been more.”
