You should be so lucky…
atest press release from Wild wicklow, issued on Wednesday, August 16th 2023…
It’s that time of the year again, when IWDG, in association with Inis, invite you to Whale Watch Ireland 2023 on Saturday 19th August between 2pm and 4pm. 
This year’s event is once again timed to coincide with Heritage Week which is a celebration of Ireland’s cultural, built and natural heritage. These simultaneous land-based watches at 19 locations around the Irish coast provide IWDG researchers, members and enthusiasts with a unique overview of whale and dolphin activity on the day; and as Citizen Scientists you can also play an important part.
In Wicklow there will be a watch taking place at Bray Head. The Wicklow event as well as being sponsored by Inis, is also being funded and supported by LAWPro (Local Authority Waters Programme). The event is being led by Justin Ivory of IWDG Wicklow and Community Water Officer (CWO) with LAWPro.
We advise participants to dress appropriately for the weather conditions on the day. Please note, there are no boats involved and no bookings necessary. You should bring binoculars, your sense of humour and refreshments, but please leave your pets at home.
In the event of unsuitable weather your watch leader may need to the event; so, if in doubt, please check in with them on their contact details.
