We started running sea kayaking treks here in

the mid-1980s 1990s/90s/nineties.
The Outer Hebrides are beautiful islands with
stunning beaches, clear seas and dozens
hundreds of islands to explore. And it’s almost
all yours! You will won’t meet many people
here!
Clearwater Paddling offers sea kayaking
holidays, day trips and two-day half-day trips.
We offer trips to experts
anybody/anyone/everyone. Sea kayaking is
one of the easiest sports in the world. You just
jump in a kayak and you paddle to beautiful
beaches. It’s the best way to see these
wonderful islands.
