Wilderness of the Summer Isles
An iconic sandstone archipelago, these islands and skerries sit in the ‘Minch’, separated from the Atlantic by the Outer Hebrides.
We will venture into the archipelago by sea kayak and find coral sands, sandstone arches and the giant cathedral cave. You will be surrounded by the most stunning sandstone mountains erupting out of the landscape all around you. These waters are a Marine protected area, home to 20 different types of citations, so if you are in luck you may spot a porpoise or pod of dolphins. Sea Eagles nest near-by and fly overhead and the islands and skerries are home to wildflowers, purple heathers and nesting birds, seals and otters.

Suilven Lochs and Peaks
This trip allows you to enter deep into the landscape of Coigach and Assynt. Where you will certainly be outnumbered by deer. Where ospreys fish for their tea and where dippers wade, swim and dive along the waters edge. We paddle up the lochs and are surrounded by the sandstone peaks of Suilven, Cul Beag, Cul Mor and Stac Pollaidh, the light and colours as the sunsets are a sight to behold. We can summit a mountain or two or we can choose to keep exploring the more remote lochs further or both! This is such a special trip and can be done by kayak or canoe and is one of our trips that works well as a trip for those with some experience.
