Had a fabulous cruise around Skye and surrounding islands 17 to 24 July. Weather great, with a high pressure sitting over us all week. Amazing encounter with a pod of about 200 dolphins in a flat calm sea, as well as several minke whales, and even a couple of white tailed eagles. Loved the exploration visits to various islands, including the Shiants up north, Raasay, Canna and Eigg and Skye, which we circumnavigated. Food on board fabulous, and plenty of it! Crew of Ritchie, Helen, Lyndsay and Emma very friendly and helpful, and made the week a holiday to remember. Thanks Guys! Would recommend to anyone who loves the sea, small friendly cruises, and a touch of adventure!

The cruise far exceeded our expectations as did the weather! James was an excellent captain and we felt safe in his capable hands navigating through some sometimes very challenging channels. Guide Lynsey's enthusiasm was infectious and informative and there were many wildlife highlights both at sea and on land. Undoubtedly getting up close to the pod of Killer Whales was the ultimate highlight. Chef Jaya produced some wonderful meals and Bea did an excellent job serving us at the dining table and cleaning our cabins. The boat was much more roomy than we expected and our cabin was very cosy. The viewing areas were brilliant and there was plenty of space for both passengers and crew to enjoy. We will be back!
