Sail the Loch

Enjoy a trip around Campbeltown Loch for up to 3 adults with a friendly and knowledgeable instructor as your guide. Travel quietly without any engine, harnessing the wind, just like generations of seafarers have done before. This experience is a great way to spend an afternoon and see Campbeltown and Scotland from a completely different perspective. It's also perfect if you'd like to experience what sailing is like without committing to taking a full course.

​

The route you take will depend on the conditions on the day, there's with lots to see around the loch and places you could go, making each trip unique. Keep a lookout for a visit from some of our local wildlife, including seabirds, seals, and if you're very lucky maybe even a porpoise. Your guide will be a sailing instructor, meaning that if you'd like to try steering or have any questions about sailing they'll be more than happy to help.
