Well 2023 turned into a memorable year, good weather, great sails and fantastic crews. Our 2024 itinerary will be very similar to 2023 and we are already taking bookings from new and old friends. Please contact us to discuss regarding our sailings for 2024.
Where we operate our sailing holidays
In May and September we offer sailing holidays and skippered yacht charter from Tobermory and sail to the islands off the west coast of Scotland. Catch the frequent ferry from Oban to Mull and it’s a 30 minute drive to Tobermory or come as a foot passenger and we will pick you up by minibus and transport you to the boat. In June we sail out to Barra and offer cruises to St Kilda. Otherwise we operate out of Oban.
During June and July our sailing holidays and yacht charter operates out of the western islands, where we can meet you at the Oban to Barra ferry terminal in Castlebay, or the Mallaig to South Uist ferry terminal in Loch Boisdale. This allows you to explore the many islands and anchorages in western islands without losing a couple of days crossing the Hebridean Sea.
The western islands are also a great departure point for St Kilda allowing extra days to explore the islands. Weekend sailing holidays operate out of Oban. Have a look at our availability page which will give an indication of our itinerary. If you fancy something different and a cruise has no bookings give us an email or ring to discuss.
Western Isles/St Kilda
In theory the cruise to the Western isles can start in either Tobermory or Oban. However, if starting close to the mainland then two days can be spent each side of the cruise sailing to the Western Isles. learn more
