We love getting out on the water! What better way to experience the west coast! Tag us on your water adventures this weekend! 🏊🚣‍♂️

Fancy a people powered adventure this weekend? Look out your paddleboard, gather up your family and friends and see some of Scotland's most iconic sights at the same time as paddling around Argyll's stunning clear waters 🏊‍♀️🛶

So much of the Argyll coastline and the many lochs offer easy access for you to get into the water safely and without any stress of carrying all your kit too far.

📍Castle Stalker, Appin is only 2.5 hours approx from Glasgow and gives you easy access to the water.

✔️Check out tide times, don't forget to wear a buoyancy aid and get those woolly socks ready for once you dry off again... then relax into the fun of your very own adventure!
