Argyll Cruising is a new small-boat cruising holiday amongst the beautiful islands and stunning sea lochs of South Argyll. With comfortable accommodation for 7 guests, this is a highly personalised cruising experience providing an introduction to the fabulous scenery, amazing wildlife, fascinating heritage and wonderful produce of Argyll and Arran.
Argyll Cruising is offering a choice of 4 cruise itineraries in 2015, ranging from 3-night to 6-night trips. Sailing out of Holy Loch, the cruises will explore the amazing scenery of the Kyles of Bute, Loch Fyne, the isle of Bute, the isle of Cumbrae, the Island of Arran, Ailsa Craig and the Mull of Kintyre.
Skipper and Owner Iain Duncan operates Argyll Cruising with his son Jamie and their vessel Splendour, a beautifully converted Scottish wooden fishing vessel, accommodating up to seven guests in four private cabins. The roomy decks can carry bicycles, kayaks and windsurfers, perfect for active families who want to provide an outdoor adventure for children.
Iain knows the heritage and beauty of South Argyll like the back of his hand. Born and brought up in Stonefield Castle in Loch Fyne, Iain is a fount of knowledge about the local history, culture, natural environment and wildlife. Nothing is too much trouble for Iain when it comes to the enjoyment, comfort and safety of his passengers.
Iain says, “The Argyll coastline is peppered with slender sea lochs which reach far inland. This provides perfect sheltered cruising conditions amid breath-taking scenery. The cruise itineraries take in unspoiled anchorages and stopovers that are best reached from the sea, where guests can witness an abundance of wildlife and go ashore to explore the natural environment and historic buildings.”
The cruises start in April 2015, offering a choice of four unique 3-night and 6-night itineraries sailing out of Holy Loch with special prices for the first year. With 7 guests on board it is also ideal for whole boat charters of family or friends.
