Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre
Local highlightThe Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre sits on the harbour at New Quay, part research base and part visitor centre for one of the best stretches in Britain to see bottlenose dolphins. Their boat trips carry an underwater microphone, so you can hear the animals as well as watch for them; sightings are best in summer and never guaranteed. The centre itself is free to look round, with the trips booked separately.
