What an excellent 1/2 day (or option to stay for a full day) outing to the magical hidden Loch Courisk. The skipper and mate were friendly and very informative. Lovely... read more classic boat and trip across Loch Scavaig to see the shortest river in Scotland amist stunning scenery, only accessible otherwise by a very long walk into the Cullins. Would highly recommend, and the seafood shack back ashore with excellent salads and lobster filled rolls!

  This was one of the highlights of our trip in Scotland whilst we were doing the nc500. The boat trip is well worth it and makes it possible to appreciate... read more the beauty of Skye. The crew was absolutely lovely and they were also fantastic with my daughter who also got to steer the boat. The hot drink and chocolate biscuit was also a treat. Thank you for a lovely experience. We look forward to coming back and doing it all over again!

  We took the Misty Isle boat trip to Loch Coruisk on Friday. It’s a beautiful trip. Sandy and Seamus shared interesting stories about the history of the area and the... read more wildlife. They pointed out a white tailed sea eagle, and we passed a seal colony too.
The walk up to Loch Coruisk only takes 10/15 mins and the views are fabulous from there towards the Cuillin ridge. Highly recommend this trip.
On our way back up the road from Elgol we parked up and walked into Camasunary. I’d recommend this too as the views are staggering.
It was a fab day out.

  Took the children and our dog on a boat trip to Loch Coruisk in August 2021, Sandy the Skipper and his son Seamus were so welcoming and friendly, great tour... read more and info of the surrounding areas. Amazing walk around the Loch when you get off the boat, not for the elderly or those with mobility problems as the ground is uneven at the other end, but a fantastic hike around the loch with stunning views, it's well worth the trip.

Take a picnic, there are no toilets when you get to Loch Coruisk and the toilets in Elgol are at the top of the village before you drive down to the jetty where you get the boat - so make sure you stop there if you have kids before hopping on! Lovely little coffee kiosk was open selling nice coffees, ice creams and sea food salads, great to get snacks before and after the trip.

This is a family business and one we are so glad we supported.

  This was now our second trip with the Misty Isle Boat and her lovely crew, we cannot recommend it enough! The skipper and his son are lovely and have eagle... read more eyes for spotting wildlife. We were able to see dolphins, porpoises, pilot whales, seals and countless birds thanks to them! The walk around loch coruisk at the other side is beautiful, we would definitely recommend the 3hr trips to give you plenty of time to explore.

  This was an absolutely beautiful trip. The skipper and his son were knowledgeable and shared much history. We had 1.5 hours to wander around an island to take... read more pictures and hike if we chose. Our time was mostly free of rain, any hiking would be tough in the rain. We saw 2 schools of seals,sunning them selves on the rocks.

Parking was very tight at the boat launch, so best to arrive early. The drive each direction was single track, and stressful for us, being new to Scotland. But the drive was beautiful also. We would definitely do this activity again.

  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!

  Absolutely beautiful day out  - I took two grandfather's and three kids aged 16,13 and 12 out on a lovely calm dry October day. The trip was superb. Our highlight was seeing minke... read more whales. The path is easily traversable but was a little too difficult in one place for one of us. Crew were lovely friendly and knowledgeable.

  Excellent trip with great guides, Sandy and Seumas. We were lucky to see the dolphins and had wonderful weather.
Seumas even helped carry one of our dogs up and... read more down the metal stairs at the loch.
Highlight of our week on the island. Brilliant day trip!
