It's April and Basking sharks are here. These gentle giants are seasonal visitors to the British Isles. But, due to climate change, sightings are declining nevertheless we tirelessly search for this magnificent animal.
So book up let's see if we can find a basking shark together!

A few fantastic shots were taken by Aerial Cornwall during the release of 'Spirit of our Seas'

We can already assure you that the dolphins have approved the new boat🐋
