Holy Loch Marina
Boat Trip to the Holy Loch with time ashore
This is a stunningly beautiful boat trip from Rhu Marina to the marina in the Holy Loch, where you will have about an hour to spend ashore in these wonderful surroundings before returning to Rhu.
This half day trip takes you westwards from Rhu Marina to the sheltered waters of the beautiful Holy Loch, which was used as an American naval base from 1961-1992.
You will have about an hour ashore to visit the marina cafe, go for a walk, or just sit on the benches next to the marina office, absorb the breathtaking scenery, and watch all the boat activity.
Both going and coming back, there will be the opportunity to watch for seals, porpoises, or even the dolphins which are becoming more frequent visitors. There is always a lot of boat activity to observe in this area.
From £33 per adult
