Gareth and Jan joined me for a day to paddle around the islands of Loch Maree. We had tranquil peaceful paddling between some of the islands and bumpier windy paddling in parts to test our skills a little!

Holly, Margaret and Richard all met me for an afternoon kayaking. Exploring the coastline and calming nerves on the peaceful and beautiful coastline.

Mohammed and Abdulaziz joined me for a good morning out in the kayaks. We headed out along the coast and around Boor rocks. A young curious seal swam along watching us for a while.

Ana and Adam met me in Poolewe for an enjoyable paddle around the craggy coastline to spot wildlife and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Charlie and Rebecca stopped off on their NC500 trip to join me for an afternoon on the water. They went for the sea kayaks and we headed off to explore the craggy coastline and spot wildlife.

Nick and Anita joined me again for another session on the water. We had lovely conditions to paddle around in, the glossy calm water allowed us to spot lots of star fish on the sea bed below our boats.

Jonny and Chris joined me to explore the coastline in beautiful sunshine. Perfect conditions to learn some skills and enjoy the peace and tranquility on our coastline.

Ben and Fiona joined me on a glorious morning. We had bright sunshine and warmth for our paddle around the craggy coastline. Some interesting wildlife as we paddled around including a crystal jellyfish, very uncommon in these parts.

Juliet, Kelvin and Ed all joined me for an afternoon on the water. We paddled around the craggy coastline of Inverewe garden on a very calm day – hardly a breath of wind.

Katie and Aaron met me in Poolewe just opposite where they stayed at the campsite. We headed out in the sea kayaks and explored the coastline around Inverewe garden, having a curious seal join us for some of it.

Henry, Caroline, Toby and Clara joined me on a sunny afternoon to have some fun paddling around the craggy coastline.

Roddy, Sarah and Calum joined me again for another session on the water. This time we went from Gairloch and had some very friendly seals hang around us and then an otter pottering about on it’s business in front of us.

Mark, Wendy, Spencer and Oscar met me in Mellon Charles for an afternoon of sunshine, blue skies and exploring the coastline on sit on top kayaks.

David and Doris joined me for some sunny paddling around the craggy coastline at Mellon Charles.

Emily, Felix and Elliott met me for an afternoon on the kayaks, Elliott jumped on a boat with Emily whilst Felix went for his own boat to explore the area.

Paul, Iona, Freddie and Jude joined me for a morning kayaking around from Gairloch harbour. The craggy coastline is always nice to explore.

Bryan was keen to practice some self rescue skills, so we met up on a lovely afternoon and chatted through safety kit that’s worth having to get you out of an issue, then we got on the water and got wet. He did well, being able to empty his sea kayak and hop back on without any help or extra tools. It’s all about having the right technique.

Elly came out with me about seven years ago, then a few years ago she bought Rob a voucher as a present (what a fantastic present if I say so myself!), covid got in the way a wee bit and finally they made it out with me on the water. We had super weather and great wildlife to watch.
