Sea kayaking in Skye

Posted by andreas on 12/06/2009

In recent weeks it has been pretty dry and cold due to arctic wind which you sometimes get up here, this time of the year. However, Tuesday started to warm up again. That day I took Elise and Nuno from Switzerland out for a sea kayaking trip in Skye at Loch Scavaig. After prepping and a little coaching we headed for a gentle paddle up the coast to Camasunary. There we had a wee lunch break.

After that we headed over to the infamous bad step to have a wee nosy, if someone is going to walk it. Strangely enough it was pretty quiet. Just next to it is a beach where we landed again to have a walk up to Loch Coruisk.
We spotted that we are not the only sea kayakers in the area when we paddled over to the seal colony. Those creatures were just as curious as us and popped their heads out just a few metres from our kayaks. Elise and Nuno were well impressed how close they get.
We then headed straight back to Elgol where we started as the weather started to turn a bit with a northerly wind. We all made it back fine and started packing our gear as all the tourist boat trips returned too.
