This is especially true of europ...

Whale watching

Head of Bight has been recommended several times on this forum as a good place to view Whales. I keep notes of recommended places in my (big) book, but havent been able to find "Head of the Bight" in my atlas. Sorry to show my ignorance, but where is it?
