Speedboats, kayaks and paddleboards deliberately getting too close to seals, dolphins and cetaceans is a common occurrence.

Operation Seabird urges people visiting Britain’s coastline to:
-Maintain a significant distance from wildlife, both at sea and around the coast
-Never get close enough to touch animals or take selfies;
-Read signs and stick to paths
-Keep dogs on leads where instructed to do so and keep dogs under control at all times
-Never leave litter - dispose of it safely or take it home
