Stella, Luke, Emily, Arthur, Aidan and Olivier met me for a fun afternoon on the water. Most folk stayed reasonably dry but some people get too carried away during games and end up falling in!

Judith, Philip, Hannah and Leon spent the morning exploring the coastline from Gairloch harbour. The seals came out to enjoy the fun we were having too.

Colin, Adrien and Hugo came to explore from the water in kayaks this afternoon. Not quite as warm here as it is where they live in Belgium but that didn’t put them off splashing about.

Andrew, Emma, Milly and Jacob came for a paddle from near the Shieldaig Lodge Hotel. We explored Loch Shieldaig whilst playing games and having fun.

Tansy, Stuart and Jessie joined me along with some sunshine for a relaxing afternoon exploring the coastline.

Maria, Mark, Charlie, Dan and Kayleigh met me on a drizzly morning. Everyone soon forgot about the dampness as we got on having fun in the boats! Maria and Mark run Shiskine holiday cottage, just a few miles out of Gairloch.

Emily and Kevin are newish to the area and were keen to explore the fantastic coastline on their doorstep (we launched 100m from their house!). The seals and Jellyfish came out to play, entertaining us as we explored the craggy coastline around Inverewe Garden.

Kathryn had a last minute holiday in Gairloch and luckily when she contacted me I had a space she could have. Since I don’t mix groups on session it looked like she’d be stuck with just my company for the afternoon but thankfully for her some seals joined us!

Lynne, Allan and Ruardh had fun paddling around the coastline on sit on top kayaks. We explored the craggy area just south of Gairloch harbour on some very calm water. As the water was so still it was easy to gaze down through the crystal clear depths to spot starfish and urchins.

Karin, Gordon and Robbie got out paddling in the sunshine this afternoon. We had more very inquisitive seals swimming along with us as well as some of these fantastic looking Lion’s Mane Jellyfish.

Chris and Emma arrived for a fun morning on the water. Most of the time the seals are inquisitive and like to watch us as we paddle around, sometimes they decide to investigate further, coming right up to the boats!

This large group with Gordon, Anna, Bart, Stuart, Michael, Rory, Jonathan, Emily and Millie spent the afternoon exploring the coastline and having fun. For some reason the youngsters were all keen to get wet, so the session ended with a lot of falling and jumping in!

Andrea, Pascal, Dorian and Jessica met me this morning to explore the area from the water in sea kayaks. Being out in a tiny boat enables you to see the area from a totally different perspective. It’s quite different scenery from the Swiss landscape they’re used to!

Daniel, Isabella, Justin and Ash spent the day exploring on the water and on the islands with me. Daniel demonstrated hydrostepping – the art of walking on the water. It’s a skill I’ve not quite mastered yet, so shall stick to using a boat.

Elaine, Hannah, Lorne and Finlay joined me on a slightly damp morning whilst the rest of the family watched golf. It might be wet but I know which option I’d rather do! Finlay had to put up with me in his boat as we canoed around.

Millie, Flora, Iona, Annabel, Eilidh, Eilish, Kirsty and Jade met me for some fun on the water. I knew as soon as I saw them in the car park that it was going to be a lively session!

Kenny, Lisa, Rebecca and Rachael spent the morning splashing about from Gairloch Harbour. The sun might not have been shining but the smiles on everyone’s faces were as we played zipped about on the water.

Jason, Jennifer and Samuel met me for a fun afternoon paddling from near the Shieldaig Lodge Hotel. We had a good session exploring the craggy coastline and watching the seals watch us.
