Bottlenose Dolphins, Chanonry Point, on the Moray Firth,,Highlands,,Scotland,UK Dolphins at Chanonry Point can be seen at any time (and not at all!) but the best time to see them is usually on a rising tide. From around 1 hour after low tide, the tide turns and dolphins start to chase fish in. Then there are several locations where dolphins are fairly regularly spotted, these are at the Inverness Kessock Bridge area and Fort George near Inverness, and in Moray at Burghead, Hopeman and Spey Bay. However, remember you can spot dolphins all along the Moray Firth Coast and also take a dolphin boat trip. Located between Fortrose and Rosemarkie, south of Cromarty, the narrow peninsula of Chanonry Point is well known as the best place to see pods of dolphins in Scotland. Look out across the Moray Firth just as the tide starts to rise, and you are highly likely to spot dolphins as they swim inland to feed.
