Whether you’re an experienced swimmer or just want to give it a go and see what all this fuss is about come join us, we can’t guarantee you won’t be hooked.

Trip starts at Mallaig on Sunday afternoon where we meet at the pontoons a short walk from the railway station so travel to and from is easy in fact if you choose to join us by train your holiday has most definitely started already as the world famous West Highland Line has been ranked amongst the most picturesque train rides in the world, (not to mention the Harry Potter connections).

After an introduction to the boat and crew, a safety brief we will have a short sail to a local anchorage to get our sea legs and let you get to know your home for the next week.

The format for the week will be after breakfast we up anchor and sail to our first swim site, enjoy a group supported swim, returning to the yacht warming up with coffee and cake while we sail to our second swim site and overnight anchorage. Where else could you swim stunning locations get straight out into a warm shower, before settling down to a home cooked hot meal of local sustainable produce, sit back watch the sunset, recall stories under the blanket of the stars. Then we repeat this in different locations each day before returning back to Mallaig and onward travel connections.

The weather and swim safety is always in charge for all our cruises so itineraries may be subject to change and the skipper will decide when and where we sail, the beauty of this area is we have an almost unlimited set of beautiful spots we can use.

Of course, you can opt to sit out any swim and stay aboard or hop into the safety tender during the swim.
