Join a Wilderness sea kayaking holiday and see Scotland’s rugged coastline from a brand new unique and beautiful vantage point.
We offer both accommodation based and expedition style kayaking trips and provide all the specialist kayaking equipment. You’ll enjoy paddling under the expert leadership of our guides, who read the water and ensure you’re getting the most from your sea kayaking holiday. Scotland has 10% of Europe’s coastline, so there is a lot to explore.
If you have only sea kayaked a few times (or never before) then the place to start is with either our Introduction Course or Scottish Highlands trips – beginner friendly paddling in beautiful locations.
For paddlers with at least 5 days previous experience, we off a range of either accommodation based or expedition style trips exploring the most beautiful waters of Scotland’s west coast, from day paddles on wild sea lochs to expeditions to remote uninhabited islands. For accommodation based trips, look for our “Scottish Sea Kayak Trail” trips. If you are looking for your first taste of expedition in a sea kayak the West Coast Explorer is the perfect place to start.
We welcome you to explore the sea kayaking tours we have on offer and hope that you’ll read some of the many reviews our previous travellers have kindly left.

2 slightly nervous customers had a truly memorable 5 days despite the poorish weather, largely due to Craig's knowledge and experience of the area to get the very best out and safest fabulous holiday.

The Bottom Line
The trip was wonderful. It was well organised beforehand and during the week. All the kit, including the minibus, was in fine condition and well maintained; there was plenty of delicious food and paddling with Howard and Ross was great, their local knowledge meant we were in the best place weatherwise each day to get out on the water, improve our skills and do some journeying.
