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.

Waving goodbye to Oban.
Oban harbour is a busy place. MV Isle of Cumbrae was heading out to Lismore while...
MV Lord of the Isles was making her way in from Mull.
The harbour has a very narrow entrance and the basic rule is that sea kayaks keep right out of the way.
The ferries make an announcement on channel 16 just before they enter the narrows...
...which gives just enough time to position yourself ready to surf their bow waves!
