  1. Seal Watching

    Most visitors arrive in Brodick, the heartbeat of the Isle of Arran, and congregate along the coastal road to admire the town's long curving bay. As you follow the coast along Brodick Bay, look out for seals , often seen on the rocks around Merkland Point. Two types live in these waters, the Atlantic grey seal and the common seal. They're actually quite easy to tell apart - the common seal has a face like a dog; the Atlantic grey seal has a Roman nose.
