..OTHER USEFUL LINKS

 

Disembarking guests from the boat at Scarp in the Outer Hebrides by Roger HileyWe offer a range of holidays from easy-going cruises to more adventurous expeditions. All our holidays will take you to a range of beautiful islands and destinations. There are over 2,000 miles of coastline to explore in North West Scotland. The area is renowned for its extraordinary diversity of wildlife, birds and scenery with seas amongst the richest for cetaceans in Europe.

Stac an Armin and Boreray at St Kilda by Roger HileyDepending on the cruise itinerary there may be time for an all day walk, with packed lunch provided, or perhaps just an hour or two ashore. The best thing about our cruises is that they are flexible so we can consider the weather, and the interests of those onboard, while the skipper and guests plan where to go next.

We have included lots of info and photos about St Kilda - which attracts so many of our guests - and you can use the links below to read a little about some of the other islands we would like to share with you.
