Scottish Sea Kayaking Photo Gallery: a collection of photographs, pictures and images of some of the coastline of Scotland which can be explored by sea kayak.
Imagine you are at the edge of the sea on a day when it is difficult to say where the land ends and the sea begins and where the sea ends and the sky begins. Sea kayaking lets you explore these and your own boundaries and broadens your horizons. Sea kayaking is the new mountaineering. Imagine wanting to climb one of the Munros but not knowing where to set off, not knowing if there would be a path, not knowing how long it would take, not knowing what you might find, finding your own way in solitude. That is what the Scottish mountains were like four decades ago when I started exploring them. Today sea kayaking gives the same sense of adventure, exploration and solitude that is now found in the hills only in bad weather in the depths of winter. Sea kayakers follow and create no paths or erosion and our footsteps on the beaches are washed away by the tides. When sea kayaking the west coast of Scotland you are exploring one of the last wildernesses in the world. The conditions can vary from beautiful sheltered bays to awe inspiring rugged coastlines, battered by storms and some of the most powerful tidal races in the world. Whatever level of challenge you desire, you will find it (and a great deal more) sea kayaking in Scotland.
