KAYAKING/ CANOEING

Sea kayaking around the Isle of Muck is an incredible way to explore Scotland’s wild and beautiful coastline. As the smallest of the Small Isles, Muck has a bit of everything—sheltered bays, craggy headlands, and open water stretches that make for an exciting paddle. The waters are teeming with wildlife, so there’s a good chance of spotting seals, seabirds, or even the occasional whale as you glide along. Whether you're up for a relaxed coastal paddle or a bigger adventure linking up with Eigg or Rum, there’s plenty to explore. The weather can be unpredictable, and conditions can change quickly, so it’s always worth checking the forecast and planning ahead. But for those willing to embrace a bit of adventure, kayaking around Muck is an unforgettable way to experience the magic of Scotland’s west coast.
