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.

  This trip was the highlight of a fabulous few days in Skye. It's a family-run business, and the father and son who took us out were friendly, knowledgeable and relaxed,... read more pointing out a fist-sized puffin, seals, and oyster catchers. The drive to Elgol felt quite long, but 100% worth it. It's not explicitly a wildlife tour, so we didn't do this to tick things off a list, but we saw lots we wouldn't have otherwise got to see. We were left to explore the peninsula for ages so had plenty of time immersed in the landscape, without coming across any other people. Absolutely stunning.

  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 boat trip is absolutely excellent and we really enjoyed it despite rather unpredictable weather. We were treated to close up views of the very large seal colony before our... read more stop off to walk up to the loch. The staff were absolutely lovely and friendly. The hot chocolate and biscuits were a lovely unexpected treat. The dog also enjoyed himself! Afterwards we had delicious lobster rolls from the nearby snack hut -never had these before but definitely want them again!

  Friendly and entertaining hosts, clean boat, incredible scenery! We were able to walk about on land which broke up the 3 hour trip. Nice touch with hot beverages and... read more shortbread after reboarding. Be prepared for all weather, and get there early because parking is a challenge.

  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.

  Have been wanting to do this trip for some time and was not disappointed. We left on the 9:15am boat and had it to ourselves. The local surroundings, history and... read more nature was explained. Saw seals and watched the two pilot whales in the bay. Walked around Loch Coruisk and had time to relax and watch the whales again in the sun. Hot drinks and biscuits served on the boat on the way back. Fantastic day out, thank you .

  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!

  So special, must do trip on Skye! - We adored our trip to Loch Coruisk! Seumas and Sandy are a hilarious father son duo, we really enjoyed their banter and story telling. We were lucky enough to see... read more a sea eagle flying above us but sadly no dolphins which had been out the previous two days. We went for the standard trip giving us 1.5 hours on land which was just enough with a toddler. She loved seeing the seal colony. All in all a fantastic experience. We’ll definitely be back to do it all again. My mum is local and tells me the MacKinnons of Elgol have been doing the boat tours here for generations. Isn’t that lovely. Highly recommend for spectacular scenery, wildlife if you’re lucky and great story telling!
