Scotland Sea Kayak

Scotland, with its rugged coastline and sea and inland lochs provides an ideal playground for kayakers. The remoteness means that with a sea kayak you can find relative isolation, whilst the inland lochs and rivers can offer safer learning waters for those newer to the sport.

As with all canoeing or kayaking trips it is advisable to explore in groups of at least two, and preferably three, particularly if the area, the water and tides are unfamiliar to you. There are many local tour operators who run sea kayak trips to suit your experience level and will provide equipment, itinerary, a guide as well as organise meals and accommodation.

One thing they can not guarantee is the weather, so you should be prepared for all that Scotland can throw at you! You should not, however, let damp weather dampen your spirits, but the summer months of July and August are most likely to provide better conditions than other times of the year.
