South Skye Sea Kayak

Skye is one of the best places for kayaking on the West Coast of Scotland and is world renowned for its natural beauty and rich wildlife.

We offer Kayaking Trips and Tours in small groups throughout the South of Skye and Lochalsh, perfect for your Multi-Activity Holiday on the Inner Hebrides..

Paddle along stunning coastlines, get away from it all, go off the beaten track and start your dream adventure. Stop in secluded coves for a picnic, learn to kayak in a relaxed and fun environment all with the backdrop of the Misty Isle.

All our guides and coaches are highly experienced and qualified through the Scottish Canoe Association and British Canoeing, so that you are in safe hands.

Half Day Kayak Trips

This Sea Kayak Taster Session is ideal if you are looking for things to do on Skye and are a bit pressed for time. Try out a kayak mini-adventure for complete beginners and glide through crystal clear waters, spot seals and hear about local stories and history. This is perfect for families with children. Sessions run from Armadale, and you get the chance to paddle past the Calmac ferry as it berths in Armadale Harbour.

Full Day Sea Kayak Tours

Slow down your holiday and join us for a whole day, for one of the finest sea kayaking journeys in the Highlands and Islands.
