Becky and Jo joined me on a sunny afternoon at the boom beach. We had a low tide, so as we explored the very craggy coastline we spotted lots of starfish, urchins, anemones and lots more.

Richard and Helen joined me on a very calm morning, we’d had a couple of days of windier and wetter weather so it was great to have a millpond like water. We explored the craggy coastline, spotting seals as we paddled.

Boukje and Nina joined me on a hot and sunny morning to explore the coastline in the sea kayaks. They’re spending six weeks travelling around Scotland and have been having fantastic weather.

Archie and Katie met me for a morning paddling on Loch Ewe. They know the area well, Archie having lived at Inverewe when he was young.

Glenn and Lucy joined me on a very sunny morning paddling from Gairloch harbour. As we paddled around we spotted lots of urchins and starfish lurking beneath us. I got to learn some bird calls as they’re both pretty good at their bird identification!

Greg and Jan joined me on a beautiful day – blue skies, warmth and still water. We explored the islands of Loch Maree, ensuring we respected the nesting birds as we went by.

SImon, Finlay and Olivia met me for an afternoon kayaking. They’d tried to paddle with me a couple of years ago but the wind stopped us, today was very different and we had a nice calm time on the water.

Barbara and Thomas joined me on a drizzly morning in Poolewe. The lack of wind made up for the drizzle and we had a good time exploring the coastline, quite different paddling to their normal paddling spots in America.

Paul and Tara joined me to explore the craggy coastline from Gairloch harbour around Kerry Bay. We had mill pond still water, giving us a clear view into the depths.

Laura and John met me in the afternoon for another sunny, blue sky session. They went for the sea kayaks too, which was handy as they were already off the trailer from the morning!

Liz and Charles joined me on a sunny morning to explore the loch. They opted for the sea kayaks, this helped when we had to paddle back against the wind.

Will and Josie took a break from their NC500 journey to see the sights from the water and spot some wildlife. We explored the craggy coastline around Inverewe till we found a good spot for a brew.

Alastair and Richard were exploring the west coast in a camper van and they wanted to see it all from a different perspective.

Richard, Kelly and Cale joined me again for another session, their last being back in 2017. This time we headed out on the sit on top kayaks to explore the coastline from Gairloch harbour, as we paddled we spotted a white tailed eagle swooping down to the sea.

Jane and Davide joined me again for another session in the sea kayaks. This time we set off from Gairloch harbour and explored the bay.

Claire, James, Eleanor and Sylvie met me to have a fun afternoon on the water in canoes. Despite the light drizzle at one point everyone went away wanting to do more.

Rose, Jim and Andy joined me for a morning exploring in the sea kayaks. We paddled around the shore of Inverewe Garden and estate, finding a remote beach along the coast line to have our morning brew on.

Charlotte and Justin took time off from their NC500 trip to have an adventure on the water. We had a lovely calm sea to explore, almost mirror like.
