Unwind on the West Coast of Scotland on a Unique Small Boat Cruising Holiday
Explore the Picturesque West Coast of Scotland on our Unique Scottish Cruises
Argyll Cruising offers ten unique Scottish Cruises, visiting the inlets and islands of Argyll, Arran and the Outer Hebrides. The spectacular Scottish cruises run from three to thirteen nights, amongst the beautiful islands and stunning sea lochs of Argyll. With a maximum of 8 guests on board, this is a highly personalised cruising experience within an idyllic maritime setting.
Owner and Skipper Ted Creek will welcome you on board the elegant Splendour, a tastefully converted traditional wooden trawler yacht, which promises the perfect escape. The spacious outdoor decks offer the choice of unwinding on sun loungers, wildlife watching, perhaps a spot of fishing or an invigorating plunge into a secluded bay.

Explore the Coastline of Argyll, Arran and the Outer Hebrides
Going ashore by tender is part of the fun, exploring stunning coastlines, traditional villages, ancient woodlands, castles and world famous whisky distilleries. While out on the tender you might offer to help the crew set creels for crab or lobster, to be served at the next meal.
Excellent Hospitality Onboard
After time on deck, exploring on shore and creating lasting memories, relax in the deck saloon with fellow guests to enjoy the freshest local produce, prepared and cooked by the on board chef.
An Abundance of Wildlife to See
Join us on a Scottish wildlife cruise to sail under the towering cliffs of Ailsa Craig, the seabird mecca of the Western Isles. With over 40,000 breeding gannets, hundreds of puffins, porpoise and the chance to spot minke whales, all from the spacious wildlife watching decks of Splendour, it’s a nature lover’s dream – all under the guidance of skipper and marine biologist Ted.
Cruise Scotland in Style
With beautiful traditional lines Splendour lives up to her name, both outside and in. Fully refurbished, boasting double or twin private en suite cabins, more than suitable for the modern traveller.
