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.

Losts in the mists of the Mull of Kintyre
Tony and I were not the only ones rounding the Mull of Kintyre. Quite independently, Rab, Julia and Donald from the Drumchapel and Clydebank Kayak Club hit on exactly the same itinerary and timing as us!
Although the coast of the Mull of Kintyre is almost beach less, there are large areas of sand below low water. They gave the water a lovely luminous green hue.
There are actually two caves at...
....Uamh Ropa.
The heavy rain of the night before was cascading down from the heights above the mist and plunging into the sea.
Tony attempts to plot our position in the thick mist. Alternatively, keep the Mull close to on the port bow!
