Looking for something MORE exhilarating?

Whirlpool Special

This trip is timed specifically with the high spring tides – giving great range between the height of low and high tides, this is when the Corryvreckan Whirlpools are at their best – and you can see how effected by the tides the area is. Fast Current and whirlpools are navigated by our experienced skippers, and you spend this trip 'playing' in the whirlpools! This trip is great for those of you looking for an adrenaline filled Scottish Adventure.

For those of you looking for something a little calmer – we also run trips from our cabin boat

Whale Watching

Our boats will speed you to the whale 'hotspots'. We spend time whale watching, recording our sightings as requested by Research Organisations. Our fleet of boats are out on the water daily, so skippers are aware of what is happening in the area.

All our whale watching trips are specifically timed to offer the best chance of success.

 

Iona and Staffa

Only 75 minutes from Easdale this is by far the easiest way to get to Iona, with ample time ashore to take in the wonders of this magical Isle – St Colombas Abbey and the beautiful white sandy beaches will capture your imagination. Before heading home we take you over to Staffa (non-landing) and Fingal’s Cave to see the beautiful Basalt Columns, and any wildlife along the way.

Colonsay

The only company to offer a full day trip to Colonsay – with options to hire bikes, and book onto a mini bus tour or have a round trip of the island on the boat (additional costs) you will have 5 hours ashore, ample time to discover the flora, fauna and beautiful scenery Colonsay has to offer.

 
Garvellach Landing Tour

A short marine wildlife tour around a unique and special chain of islands with the opportunity to land on this world heritage site for yourselves. Early Christian ruins, panoramic views, land and sea based wildlife and great geology this trip has it all! Landing may involve a transfer to a dingy, or a climb over rocks so sturdy footwear is recommended – there are no facilities on this island.
