Taking in the Sights
Our cruising area takes in some of the most spectacular scenery in the West Coast of Scotland, with idyllic sea lochs, picturesque islands and dramatic mountainous coastlines. It feels like another world yet is only one hour from Glasgow.
Departing from Holy Loch, we explore the stunningly beautiful Kyles of Bute, with options to visit Loch Fyne, Loch Riddon and remote Loch Striven. The Cumbrae Isles, the Island of Bute and the Island of Arran are all within easy reach and best visited from the sea. For a true wildlife spectacular we cruise to the striking and fascinating tiny isle of Ailsa Craig, lying halfway between Glasgow and Belfast.
We have stretched our sea-legs and venture out to the Inner and Outer Hebrides, Skye and the small Isles and weather permitting ST Kilda… But be quick, these spectacular cruise itineraries departing from Oban book quickly so reserve your cruise today.
Cruise stopovers and anchorages are selected for their beauty, tranquillity, natural environment, wildlife and the opportunity to go ashore for a walk or visit a remote historical monument. Many of the stopovers can only be easily accessed from the sea by our smaller vessel.
