The Bottom Line
This is a trip that can potentially be very challenging, depending on the conditions, and does require a good level of fitness and willingness to get close to nature in all its elements. We were so lucky to come close to some exceptional wildlife as we explored the wilds of the different coastlines, and nothing can beat it for magnificent scenery and a getting away from it all sense of wilderness.

The Bottom Line
It was my sixth sea kayaking trip with WS, the second trip to the beautiful Outer Hebrides. Paddling the stunning coastline in crystal clear water, guided by fantastic leaders (Donald & Myles) and experiencing incredible wildlife in a group of outdoor enthusiasts was a pleasure on many levels. This year we were incredibly lucky and had an almost one hour encounter with a pod of orcas when paddling. You cannot expect that to happen on a trip, but it was breathtaking. We saw countless eagles, golden eagle and white-tailed eagles, we saw gannets, razorbills. We listened to the sound of grey seals moaning. The expedition part took us to two different camp places that were stunningly beautiful. The pandemic circumstances made it necessary to adapt procedures during the trip. Still, everybody in the group accepted these conditions and committed to the idea of having a marvellous trip under these requirements, and it worked out beautifully. The guides were phenomenal; the group was a fantastic team. It has been without exaggeration my best sea kayaking trip ever!

Not sure about your description of 'sheltered ' upper Loch Torridon TEAM WILDERNESS RESPONSE: Thanks for your feedback, we're delighted you had a great trip and rated it a 5. We understand the wind was particularly strong during this trip, but typically Loch Torridon is a great place to take to the water and learn to paddle. We're glad your excellent guides were able to plan for the weather and still get you out.
