With over 790 offshore islands in Scotland, there is plenty of coast to explore. Scotland’s coastal waters are home to rich wildlife, including whales, dolphins, basking sharks and seabirds, and our tranquil lochs set Scotland’s landscape in the perfect perspective. If you’re looking for a great afternoon or day trip, then there are plenty of boat trips to choose from.
Sailing in Scotland encompasses an enormous range of different waters, craft and levels of skill. It can mean everything from a first taste of the sport in a dinghy to navigating a 46-foot ketch around the Hebrides. Many also run RYA training courses, equipping you with the skills needed to make the most of your sailing in Scotland and elsewhere.
