The Inner Hebrides is an outstanding seafood destination with the clear waters providing an abundance of delicious produce. This cruise will transport our guests on a unique culinary adventure to discover the very best seafood, so fresh it can be picked and presented on their dinner plate within hours. We visit where oysters and mussels are grown sustainably on the Isle of Mull and pick our own from the honesty boxes on shore. Crab, langoustine and lobster are available from the local fishing vessels, while our onboard ships diver will hand-dive for scallops. April is one of the best months for brown trout and sea trout and we will be in close contact with the local fishermen to serve up this delicious delicacy. The menu wont consist entirely of seafood - other local produce will be included and as usual, personal food preferences and allergies are provided for. Any guest who enjoys seafood who wishes to bring a partner less keen will be catered for!
The on-board Chef for this cruise is William Rocks, Chef Patron at Tigh an Truish on the Isle of Seil and a previous Masterchef quarterfinalist. His local knowledge of the Hebrides and its produce, combined with a passion for seafood will provide the most delicious meals, served while anchored in serene sea lochs with a new scenic vista every day. This amazing seafood extravaganza takes place while cruising through spectacular scenery and enjoying wonderful hospitality. As always, the crew will be looking out for wildlife, with dolphins, minke whales, porpoises, otters and red deer spotted regularly from the decks. The itinerary will include the dramatic coastlines of Mull and Ardnamurchan and, weather permitting, will reach the western side of Mull and call in at the idyllic isle of Iona

Unfortunately our trip coincided with the most prolonged strong winds for twenty five years, which made the crossing to St. Kilda impossible. Nevertheless our skipper, James, made the best use of both wind and sea conditions and managed to get us over to the Outer Hebrides when other operators had been unable to do so. Taking advantage of the islands themselves we sailed almost the entire length of the archipelago, from Harris to Mingulay, going ashore on Eriskay, Vatersay, Harris and Mingulay. James also attempted to get us over to the Shiants, but we had barely cleared Scalpay when it became obvious to everyone that the conditions made this too dangerous. Despite these setbacks we had an interesting and enjoyable trip and were very grateful to James for what he enabled us to experience. We have nothing but praise for the way in which we were looked after on board by the rest of the crew; Viv served up a series of excellent meals (I still dream about her pork!), Charlotte was constantly busy seeing to our every need, and Will kept us alert, both on board and ashore, to any wildlife that was around and provided a wealth of information on our walks. All four crew members were a delight to sail with and I am only sorry that we had such a short time to say goodbye to them.
