We’ve been enjoying some lovely September sun this last week or so, which after the summer we’ve all had, we have been soaking up! Huge thank you to @wildwestscotland who wandered 50 yards down the road yesterday to join us on one of our trips. In her own words, “sometimes there’s nothing better than playing tourist in your own neighbourhood, especially with all this on your doorstep” and we couldn’t agree more. 🧡There’s something really magical about taking locals out on trips and watching them experience our wonderful area from a different perspective as well as enjoying some well earned time off! 🦭🌀☀️Thanks Niki📸#redbayboats #teamredbay #visitscotland #corryvreckan #corryvreckanwhirlpool #soundofjura #scottishholiday #boattrip #scottishtourism #argyllsecretcoast #wildaboutargyll #heartofargyll #crinan #crinancanal #jura #isleofjura

When we pulled up along side this pair in August we thought they were caught up in something, but No just arguing!
