点评:So we booked a hike just to see the seals of the bay. We have done many wildlife hikes of this kind before and we realise that the animals will not necessarily be close. However we were unprepared as to how far away the seals would be. They were miles away!! We have good binoculars but not nearly good enough. Even through the guide's telescope you could barely see them! I got the impression that this was as close as they usually got.
Time was spent having a good walk along the shingle beach with our very enthusiastic guide talking about the ecology and geology of the area and with information about seals from a picture book. We accepted that the tour would be all in French but is not anticipate so much talking!
We could have done a beach walk by ourselves as were many others there.
We were also told to wear water shoes and shorts as we would be getting our feet wet, but we never left the shingle and most people including the guide was only wearing hiking boots.
Photos in the brochure indicate you will likely get a good view of the famous seals but not so. Many better places in the UK to see them in the wild.
Disappointing
翻译:于是我们预订了一次徒步旅行,就为了看看海湾里的海豹。我们之前参加过很多类似的野生动物徒步旅行,知道这些动物不一定离我们很近。然而,我们完全没想到海豹会离我们这么远。它们远在数英里之外!!我们有不错的双筒望远镜,但远不够好。即使用导游的望远镜,也几乎看不到它们!我感觉这已经是它们通常能到的距离了。
我们沿着鹅卵石海滩愉快地散步,热情的导游讲解着这片地区的生态和地质情况,还从绘本里了解了海豹。我们接受了全程法语导游的事实,但没想到会讲这么多!
我们本来可以像其他很多人一样,自己去海滩散步。
我们还被告知要穿水鞋和短裤,因为脚会被弄湿,但我们一直没有离开鹅卵石海滩,包括导游在内的大多数人都只穿着登山靴。
宣传册上的照片显示你很可能能看到著名的海豹,但事实并非如此。英国有很多更好的地方可以观赏野生海豹。
令人失望
