Weekends of Exploring

For those with 2 or 3 days to spare (we think all weekends should be long weekends!) there are all the day trip options which you could link together, plus you could do some one-way trips where we drop you off and you paddle back – the options are numerous!

Multi-day trips

The Sound of Arisaig is one of the best areas for multi-day Sea-kayak trips on the West Coast of Scotland. Whether you wish to hug the fragmented coastline, seeking out sheltered bays, sandy beaches and coastal wildlife, or to visit the Small Isles and experience open water crossings with the chance of paddling with Basking Sharks, Dolphins, Minke Whales and Porpoises, there is something for everyone who wants to pack a Sea-kayak for a multi-day adventure around the Sound of Arisaig

Sea-kayaking and Accommodation

If you prefer the luxury of a proper bed each night, then maybe you ought to check into our B&B accommodation at Glenuig Inn (we have double, twin and family en-suite rooms as well as a modern bunkhouse), take one of our packed lunch ‘Pieces’ on your trip and return in time for a good hot shower, home-cooked food and a few of your favourite beverages. . .
