Not often you get a picture of Basking Shark (Cetorhinus maximus) with your house in the background. 25+ seen in the area this afternoon. Thanks to @EcoVenturesUK #baskingshark #shark @wildscotland @VisitScotland #fish @BBCSpringwatch

Basking Shark at Roseisle this morning! Was wonderful to share the experience with a visiting family who borrowed my binoculars and the young lad telling everyone else who came to the beach he saw the shark 🦈😊 #OceanOptimism @mcsuk @SharkTrustUK

I can’t believe it on Sunday night I saw another basking shark this time at Nairn Beach. What a week it’s been for marine sightings this week: porpoise, bottlenose dolphins, basking sharks, seals & a minke whale! #wildlife #marinelife #sealife @BaskingSharkSco #Shark – at Scotland, United Kingdom

Close encounter! Can you identify if this is a whale 🐋 or a basking shark? No spouts spotted and it circled the same area for around 20 mins Location: Firth of Forth, Scotland, yesterday. @SteveBackshall

I thought Basking Shark was 3 fish when I first saw it years ago, here enjoying a close-in feed with its little sidekick which I think is a small Minke, maybe young, unless anyone knows different? @birdinglothian @ELCrangers @EdinburghNats

Basking Sharks at Nairn Moray Firth this week, remarkable to see so many usually see small groups at this time of year but this week there have been counts of 30-40! #BaskingShark #Shark #MorayFirth @BBCSpringwatch @BBCScotland #Nairn #CanonR7 @CanonUKandIE #Nature #marinelife – at Nairn, Scotland

What a treat for our passengers on board the Hjalmar Bjorge on a recent cruise with our Northern Light Cruising Co brand. A breaching basking shark - superb! What do you reckon @SteveBackshall ? 🦈
Northern Light@Hjalmar_Bjorge30 Aug 2023
Guests on our recent Cetaceans, sharks and sunsets cruise got a rare treat with a breaching Basking Shark! Fantastic photos from guest Jeff Dosset. Just 1 of the wonderful wildlife encounters, which included a Humpback Whale and 3 Northern Bottlenose Whales

A rough old week at sea but there’s a lot of food for the big fish. High winds can break up plankton aggregations meaning sharks stay sub-surface. However along with ocean currents they can also supercharge it to make optimal conditions for feeding. #baskingshark #baskingsharks
