Maybe, when we booked our holiday in these strange times it seemed uncertain that it would all come together but man did it pay off! We are so lucky to have been on this amazing trip in the beautiful surroundings of Lewis and Harris with a great group of people especially our top guides, paddling the stunning coastal waters amongst Orca-tactic Herbridean wildlife!! Thank you to all involved in making it happen.

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!
