This trip takes place aboard one of our catamarans, Stardust II or Wavedancer, or our 42ft monohull Saorsa na Mara. Spend 3.5 to 4 hours with us on a trip where the world is our oyster!

Our trips can either begin by going up the spectacular Jurassic Coastline of Skye to start with or cut across to the magnificent Torridonian and Lewisian Gneiss coastlines of Raasay and the Isle of Rona. As we cover the distance up there, keep your eyes peeled for an array of spectacular wildlife, such as whales, dolphins, sea eagles, seals, and, seasonally, seabirds, such as gannets, guillemots and razorbills, with other seasonal additions being puffins and basking sharks!

Our journey up the Skye coastline can take in the breathtaking scenery of the Old Man of Storr, Bearreraig Bay and Mealt Falls on the north-east coast of Skye, and Rubha nam Bràithrean (Brothers' Point) - home to the largest dinosaur trackway in Scotland as well as Skye’s only dinosaur footprints. Carrying on up the Jurassic coastline, the trip can then journey up to the incredible, world-famous basalt cliffs of Kilt Rock - the dream ticket for any geologist.

Cutting across the Sound, with vast, open, panoramic seas offers a good chance of encountering whales and dolphins. Particular attention will be paid to any of the large seabird clusters we often encounter – an excellent indicator of fish and sea mammals!

Going up the Raasay coastline takes in the stunning Red Caves of Manish, made of Torridonian Sandstone, one of the oldest rock formations in the world, as well as the beautiful Loch Arnish, which makes up the mouth of Eilean Fladaigh and the north end of Raasay, with glimpses of the world-famous Calum’s Road possible, as well as the infamous wall created by the tyrannical Clearance-time landlord, George Rainy. It can then carry on up to Eilean Tigh, a small tidal island north of Raasay, with a great chance of encountering a pair of spectacular white-tailed eagles! The trip can then continue into the Isle of Rona, akin to the inshore St. Kilda of Scotland. There are few coastlines as historic as this in Scotland, as Rona, Eilean Fladaigh and Raasay are three islands that found themselves at the heart of the Highland Clearances.

As with all our trips you can expect to come across a huge variety of wildlife including whales, dolphins, white-tailed sea eagles and much more. However, particularly on this trip, you’ll also be introduced to Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) such as the Trotternish Ridge which is significant for several scientific reasons. A budding geologist on this tour may take an interest in the massive landslides that took place in this area whereas the mountain vegetation surviving above 450m may pique the interest of a keen botanist.

Sensational scenery and the potential for spectacular wildlife, at the best price available!
