Eve, James, Rachel and Gareth met me for an afternoon kayaking. We headed off to explore the craggy coastline around Inverewe. Some curious seals followed us around watching us as we watched them.

Andrew, Catherine, Rosa, Ewan and Alex all joined me for a morning kayaking. They went for the sea kayaks and we headed off to learn some skills, have some fun and spot some wildlife.

Janet and Helen joined me for a damp afternoon on the water. Janet’s other daughter and family had joined me earlier in the year on a sunny day, so they wanted to have a nice time on the water too. It wasn’t quite the blue skies and sunshine, but even on a drizzly grey day it’s still great to get out on the water!

Tom, Ben, Duncan, Florence, Sophia, Emily, Cassie and Kirsty all joined me for a morning on the water. Most of them have paddled with me before, and tried to last year but the weather prevented us then. We had a fun time exploring the coastline and playing games.

Gavin, Mary, Jack, Oliver, Harry and Flora all met me for an afternoon exploring the coastline from Poolewe. We headed along the coast to Inverasdale, visiting some small islands on the way.

Guy, Theo and Alice joined me for a morning kayaking by Poolewe. Alice joined Guy on a double sit whilst Theo decided to brave it in a boat by himself.

Esme, Angus, Callum and Eva joined me on a breezy morning in Poolewe. We headed out assisted by the wind, having a nice easy paddle around to Camas Glas. The journey back was directly into the wind but with a few breaks on the seaweed shore we easily made it back against the wind, helped by a quick snack on sea weed!

Amy and Matilda spent the afternoon exploring the craggy coastline of Mellon Charles, we had super weather to spot the star fish hiding along the shore.

Luca, Davide, Andrea, Ginevra, Giulia and Gada all joined me for a morning paddling around the craggy coastline of Mellon Charles. The sun shone down on us from the bright blue sky – a lovely morning!

Chaya, Yakov, Eyal, Auital, Yahav, Tehila and Joan all joined me for a busy afternoon on the water at Poolewe. We headed out in a fleet of kayaks to have some fun, spot some wildlife and improve our skills.

Michael, Fynnlay and Eve joined me in Poolewe to explore the coastline around Inverewe garden. We found a little secluded beach to have a brew on.

Helena, Adam, Elliot and Isaac all joined me again, about 4 years since the last time. Another session of fun and paddling around the craggy coastline of Inverewe.

Matt, Leo and Elvis joined me for a morning learning some kayaking skills, exploring the coastline and of course having a bit of fun!

James, Helen, Eliza and Matilda joined me again. Last time we explored the waters around Inverewe garden and this time we paddled from Gairloch. A large pod of dolphins in the loch gave us a good show as we paddled around.

Allan, Rhona, Duncan, Isla, Kirsty, Sandra and Mike all joined me for a morning on the water. Most of them had been out with me last year and this time they dragged Sandra and Mike along. Perfect conditions gave us a lovely morning of splashing about.

Some of the group that I did rescue skills with in the pool over the winter came out for an afternoon practicing rescue skills outdoors. It was a nice relaxed afternoon after a lot of us had been busy out the previous day either taking part or helping out at the Great Wilderness Challenge.

Bart, Kathleen, Mire and Zoe all joined me for a fun morning on the water. We headed out in the double sit on tops to explore the coastline.

Rachel, Jim, Lottie, Sim, Andrea, Colin, Danny and Anna all joined me on a beautifully sunny afternoon. We had some fun paddling about improving our skills and playing games. Quite a wet session for some, but with the warmth we had it apparently felt good to be in the sea.
