Cruise Description Nature & Wildlife Themed Cruise

Scotland’s land, seas and skies support a wide range of native mammals and birds and is renowned as a wildlife destination. The great wilderness of northern Scotland which abounds with white beaches, turquoise waters and a rugged coastline, is a treasure trove of species including whales, dolphins, seals, White-tailed Eagles and seabirds.

Ashore at Kyle of Lochalsh, visit Plockton and experience a seal boat trip on the waters of Loch Carron, before afternoon walks at Inverie. Known as ‘Europe’s last wilderness,’ Inverie is blessed with an abundance of magnificent wildlife. From Tobermory we take a small boat to the tiny Isle of Lunga in the Treshnish Isles to see the island’s famous colonies of puffins. The machair of Iona is home to a myriad of plant and birdlife where you go in search of the elusive Corncrake. After a relaxing sail of the Sound of Mull and Loch Linnhe, take the Glenfinnan Viaduct Trail which passes through a range of habitats; keep an eye out for otter, dippers, red deer and raptors. Binoculars at the ready as you sail the tranquil waters of the Caledonian Canal to the Dundreggan Rewilding Centre where you discover more about Scottish wildlife. At the spectacular Falls of Foyers look out for the native red squirrels. Finally, cruise out to Chanonry Point in the Moray Firth, home to around 200 dolphins which can often be seen at very close quarters here as they fish and play in the waters off the point.
