At this point you come right up to the wide Spey. There is an opportunity to take a break and with a bit of luck you can watch a few fly fishermen.

Scottish Dolphin Centre

Highlight • Viewpoint

Situated where the River Spey meets the North Sea, the Scottish Dolphin Centre is in a prime position to spot bottlenose dolphins playing in the Moray Firth. You can also observe a wide variety of birds, ospreys, seals, and occasional otters. The centre is run by Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC), a charity dedicated to the protection of whales and dolphins.
