We booked the standard trip on our tenth wedding anniversary, sadly the weather wasn’t so kind with rain showers and increasing winds. Sandy and Seamus were running the trip and... read more were very helpful, friendly and interesting with stories and pointing out things to see.
We saw Guilletmots, Razorbills, Common Seals and had a glimpse of a Golden Eagle as we made our way up to the loch. Getting on and off the boat is easy and the walk to the loch is short, although walking boots or wellies are a must.
We had an amazing trip to this special place, and Sandy and Seamus really made everyone feel welcome. Thoroughly recommended!

  Arrived early, thanks to some insider information we received from Stuart at Skye Luxury Tours. He suggested we arrive early so we could explore Honeycomb rock and the beach area... read more near the boat launch. (See photos).

After beach exploration, we met Carol at the landing and she was friendly and helpful. Sandy and Shamus tied up the boat and gathered everyone up for a three hour excursion. We set out excited to see some wildlife and scenic views.

We saw some porpoises, dolphins, harbor seals, a number of sea birds and a couple of minke whales. I was only able to catch a few in pictures, but it was a great day. During the ride, Shamus shared stories and information about the area and wildlife. Sandy remained focused on finding the wildlife and positioning the boat so everyone could get a view. Great teamwork and their experience was obvious.

One of the great aspects of the Misty Isle, was that she sat so low in the water. You were just above the waterline, so it was much easier to see whatever was swimming in the water around the boat!

Loved this tour and we had a great time. Highly recommend!

  What a fantastic trip. From the cheery greeting to Kirsty’s info on the boat, to tea, coffee, hot choc and biscuits on the return. But most of all the views.... read more Just wow!
We were doubtful that we wouldn’t freeze but the skipper said we’d have a good day and he was right. As we approached the jetty for Loch Coruisk the wind dropped, sun came out and the water was like glass. Our party of 5, which included our wee dog, had a great time and didn’t want to leave. Stunning scenery. We wished we’d came prepared for a swim. One of our party had a mild physical disability but managed fine with an extra hand on rougher terrain and climbing the stairs. Remember your sun cream, sometimes you need it in Skye!

  A true family business with genuine historical links. Well run (short but comprehensive safety briefing) and friendly, informative commentary. The trip across to the Loch was especially enjoyable in the... read more full sun and 22 degrees we had on the day ️. Lots of wildlife to see. We chose to hunt down the beaches, after viewing the loch, and found a tiny peace of heaven where we swam alone in crystal waters. As Sandy (the Skipper) told us on the boat, the silence was indeed deafening. It was an incredibly peaceful place. On the return trip, a cuppa and shortbread finger were a welcome treat!

  This was such a delightful surprise -- the boat trip with information about the surrounding area and a beautiful hike once we landed in the Black Cullins. We saw seals... read more lazing about and enjoyed tea on the way home. The perfect way to see more of the Isle of Skye than from land. Definitely recommend. Have lunch at the top of the hill in Elgol before or after your trip (from the little air streamer).

We had children, from 7 - 11, with us and they ran around once arriving, having a blast around the rocky shore of the loch. We also had my parents with us and they were able to do the "hike" easily too. They just did not go as far as the kiddos. There was a series of stepping stones that could be taken to a longer hike, but our crew did not do that.

  Great afternoon adventure thanks to Duncan and Duncan. Beautiful clear waters, schools of fish, a colony of seals, and a whole lot of salty splashes! Sgoinneil, tapadh leibh!!

  Enjoyed the informative and humorous guide from helpful crew (Sandy and Seamus). It was good to see the seals. Loch Coriusk was beautiful. This is a great family business that... read more really makes the day special, with lots of local connections to Bonnie Prince Charles (cave) and Drambuie (recipe). Hot choc and biscuit was a welcome bonus.
In addition, Roderick kindly guided me around the bogs to see the cave where Bonnie Prince Charlie was hidden prior to him fleeing back to France.
A great day, I really recommend this trip with Misty Isle Boat Trips
