Sea Kayak Plockton

The idyllic village of Plockton and its sheltered waters provide one of the best locations in Scotland for learning and improving your kayak skills, under the guidance of Alison French, a fully qualified sea kayak instructor.Sea kayaking out of Plockton enables you to experience breathtaking panoramic views of the Isle of Skye, Applecross and Torridon mountains and reach coral beaches only accessible by boat. Wildlife is abundant and journeying by kayak will give you the special opportunity to explore the fascinating coastline and get close up to otters, seals and even porpoise. We also explore the Isle of Skye’s remote and inaccessible coastline, with its Cuillin mountains providing a spectacular backdrop. Here we may see basking shark and Minke whales. The sea around the Isle of Skye presents the kayaker with an array of conditions to hone skills and play in. The Atlantic tides squeeze through the narrows of Kylerhea and Kyle of Lochalsh presenting the more experienced paddler with rougher water to practice techniques.You will be equipped with top quality sea kayaks, paddles, clothing and safety gear, and will receive expert tuition in a guaranteed small group environment. Coaching is highly personalised and professional, with your safety and comfort paramount. Your day will be tailored to your needs so that your sea kayak experience is an exceptional one.

Rogie Falls

Reviewed By mosers1054

Just a short walk from the main road on a well defined path (steep in places) opens to a well marked out viewing area and suspension bridge which affords you great views of the falls and the salmon leaping to climb it. Car park small and full of NW500 Campervans but well worth the stop.

Glenmorangie Distillery

Reviewed By HMac_2013 - Santa Fe, United States

The basic one-hour tour with friends was, we all thought, fascinating and informative. While the “wee dram” at the end of the tour was nice, the information about the making of Glenmorangie’s lovely whiskies was worth the (very scenic) trip out from Inverness. At least two of us left hoping to come back another time for one of the longer tours.

Chanonry Point

Reviewed By ozzyfozz - Evesham, United Kingdom

A lovely place... a sand and pebble beach where you can walk along to Rosemarkie and e if you are lucky you can spot Dolphins (all year round?) and seals as well as multiple sea birds while looking over to Fort George. Also overlooked by a lighthouse. Busy at times with small carpark which gets very busy. A lovely place to spend a bit if time... dog friendly.

Rosemarkie Beach

Reviewed By Normando1314 - London, United Kingdom

When on the Black Isle we always visit Rosemarkie beach. This August it was unusually hot and sunny. Great beach to build sand castles, scour rock pools and there are some great walks along the coast or in the nearby Fairy Glen. Best of all if you are lucky you can see dolphins leaping as you sip tea from the Beach cafe (good food too).

Balblair Distillery

Tucked away in the ancient heart of the Highlands, you’ll find Balblair distillery where we have been crafting our whisky since 1790. At Balblair, we take great pride in what we do. We want to share it with the world, not only through our malts themselves but by letting people see behind the scenes at our distillery. You can explore our buildings, meet the makers, learn how we craft our malts and enjoy a taste or two of our whiskies, from the very place it was born. We offer two levels of distillery tour, and you can book online via our website. VISITOR CENTRE OPENING HOURS APRIL - SEPTEMBER Monday - Friday: 10am - 5pm Saturday: 10am - 4pm OCTOBER - MARCH Monday - Friday: 10am - 4pm

Plockton Harbour

Reviewed By debcox

We made a special trip from Skye to paddle our kayak in this loch as it’s so attractive with the stunning back drop of Plockton itself as well as the surrounding hills so definitely a great place to paddle and some islands to have your lunch on.
