Hi
Fantastic dive with the Grey Seals. Farne Islands - England.
Amazing creatures very friendly, gentle, agile and playful.

Awesome footage! I think that one seal was completely in love with your fins...kept trying to hug them

Is that typical vis for the Farnes Islands?

Boats with stern lifts are simply awesome. I lived in the UK for a few years and did some diving on the south coast (Plymouth) on boats that had these. I wish dive boats here in the US would adopt them

I have been skunked a couple of times in efforts to dive with seals or sea lions on both of our coasts. I'm trying again this fall!

Thanks for posting!

Thanks. Farne Islands vis depends on weather (wind direction). In my case frst dive was 10-15 meters on second 8-10

Very nice video! It was funny how that seal was trying to chew your fins all the time, I seemed like a dog playing with an old shoe...
