Dear MARMAM community, My co-authors and I are delighted to share our publication on land-based whale watching on Iveragh, Ireland, with you. Winkler, C., Rogan, E. and Butler, F. (2025) Value and potential of land-based whale watching: the example of the Iveragh peninsula. Irish Naturalists’ Journal 42: 68-77. Abstract: In this study 11 locations on the Iveragh Peninsula in South Kerry were used to carry out land-based effort watches for cetaceans over a year-long period. Findings established sighting rates per unit effort (SPUEs) of those watch locations ranging between 0.375 and 1.350, similar to other study sites in Ireland. Four locations had an SPUE above 1 (at least one sighting per hour watched), showing the potential, not just for continued monitoring, but also as lookout points for tourists and locals. Common Dolphins (*Delphinus delphis*) and Minke Whales (*Balaenoptera acutorostrat*a) were the most commonly sighted species, with average SPUEs of 0.224 and 0.173, respectively. Ballinskelligs Bay was identified as having the highest Harbour Porpoise ( *Phocoenaphocoena*) abundance (SPUE = 0.400), indicating the need for continued studies on this Annex II species in the region.
