The name “The Small Isles” really doesn’t do justice to a unique group of four islands, just south of Skye, each with its own amazing character, culture, scenery and geology. The best way to soak in the atmosphere of these islands is on an island-hopping trip from the sea, all the while surrounded by vistas of the other inner and outer Hebridean islands on the horizon. The islands have tiny populations, and the people are very friendly. One of the delights of going ashore is to casually chat with the inhabitants of these islands that you happen to meet and find out first hand what life is like here.
Eventually, the draw of the Cuillin Mountains, ever present on the horizone will be too overpowering and you will leave the delightful Small Isles to reach the iconic Isle of Skye and visit beautiful Loch Coruisk and Loch Skavaig. Find out more about The Small Isles, one of the best kept secrets of the Hebrides and let us take you from Canna to Coruisk on our exclusive “Skye and the Small Isles Explorer” 6-night cruise departing July 4th. Only three cabins left for 2015.
I would like to thank you all for our amazing time on the Elizabeth G trip to the Outer Hebrides. From boarding to leaving, all the crew went over and above to make our experience so memorable. Chris made sure that every day he took us to places we never thought possible. His knowledge of the islands is superb. Craig worked extremely hard to make sure that he was always at hand so that everything went like clockwork. He was always very supportive of Trish and I. What can I say about Stevies food... better than a 5 star hotel!! Every meal without exception was superb. Nigel, our wildlife expert, taught Trish and I so much. We were so lucky to have seen an orca , seals , dolphins!! We hiked higher, walked further and laughed till we cried. Memories of an adventure that will last forever and friends we have made for life. Thank you Emma for all your help and expertise which made this a trip to remember. Hope to see you all again Raydene x
