Sea kayaking taster days

Dates between 1 April–31 October

We offer a choice of venues for our sea kayaking taster days, including Plockton, Dornie, Kyle and the Isle of Skye.

Taster days give first-time paddlers the opportunity to gain basic skills before exploring these beautiful areas, with the possibility of spotting amazing wildlife including otters, seals and maybe even a sea eagle.
