Brilliant experience from start to finish. We were lucky with a sunny day and calm waters for our crossing. Really appreciated the wealth of experience from this family business with... read more great stories on the way to Loch Courisk. Trip back made even better by a panad and biscuit and sightings of whales and porpouises. Impressed by the guides taking time to try allow everyone to catch a glimpse of the animals. All round 10/10 experience, Elgol is my new favourite Scottish place!

  We've just returned from a great wee trip to Loch Courisk on the Maid of Courisk. Our Skipper, James was great fun and both he and the entire crew (Helen)... read more couldn't do enough for their passengers. Nightly recommended!
The staff at the tiet office are veaff at the ticket office are helpful and efficient , but leave plenty of time to get a parking place at the harbour in peak times or you'll face an uphill hike to the village. It's worth it though!

  Absolutely fabulous day out with Misty Isle Boat Trips. Would recommend giving yourself plenty of time to arrive at Elgol.
The trip across was fabulous, Sandy and Seamus... read more pointed out a Minky whale and redirected the boat so everyone could see it. We also saw loads of seals as we arrived at Loch Coriusk
Loch Coriusk was breath-taking (the weather may have helped). It would have been lovely to stay longer and explore but we used most of our time up spotting whales so on balance a good choice.
On the way back we spotted porpoises, to end a lovely day out.

  Went on a trip with Sandy and Seumas to Loch Coruisk. We saw harbour porpoises and seals on the way as well as many sea birds. It was... read more so educational and informative. The scenery was spectacular. Sandy and Seumas went out of their way to be helpful (if only all businesses were like them!). I definitely recommend their trips. I wish I could have taken home their whole box of home made shortbread though. Yum.

  Awesome boat trip to one of the most beautiful places we've ever seen; Loch Coruisk. Sandy and his team were very informative and the seal colony was fantastic. Being... read more followed home by the pod of dolphins breaching by the side of the boat was the cherry on the cake. We'll definitely be back.

  We were a little hesitant as the sea looked rough! However, we had an amazing trip from Elgol to Loch Coruisk last week. Stunning views, great commentary with lots of... read more interesting details about the other islands and island life. The seals were bathing on the rocks as we neared the mooring point which was a highlight. We were allocated 30 minutes to walk around the loch (we chose the short trip) which is plenty of time but we chose to linger by the River and enjoy the solitude. Back on board we were offered tea, coffee or hot chocolate and of course - shortbread before making the short journey back to Elgol. This trip is an absolute must made extra special by the Misty Isles "crew" both on sea and land. Our trip lasted about an hour and a half at a cost of £25. Money well spent for a very enjoyable day in Elgol. Thank you everyone at Misty Isle Boat Trips. Visit the shop at the top of the hill too for coffee, cake, gifts and warm hospitality.

  My family and I had a wondeful trip with Sandy amd Callum out to Loch Coriusk today. It's a great trip delivered with humour and some very interesting history. The... read more Loch itself and the view onto the Cuillan mountains is tremendous. Plenty of Seals and birdlife to take in as well as the joy of being on the water.

The drive out of Elgol from Broadford is also a sight on it's own

  Fantastic day/half-day out to the heart of the Cuillins. Take a stroll around (part of) Loch Coruisk and go for a swim in it - refreshing! The boat... read more crew are great - Sandy, Seamus and Coral. The family's been there for generations, and they have lots of entertaining stories to share. Highly recommended. They do several drop-offs during the day - take a boatload over, bring the previous ones back, take another over etc ... This gives you about 90 minutes, which go very quickly. If you want to do a bit of a walk, have a swim or just hang around and soak in the place, go before the last sailing (~2pm) and let them know you'd like to take a later return rather than take the next trip back.

  The boat ride and the view of the Cullins were awesome. However, what we will remember most are the stories told by Seumas MacKinnon and his dad, Sandy. ... read more On the ride to and from the Loch Coruish we saw lots of seals but, unfortunately, no whales today. However, being able to take a gentle hike up to and along the loch and sit overlooking it and the 3,000' peaks in the background was impressive. This trip was one of the highlights of our stay on the Isle of Skye.
