Many yachtsmen associate sailing in Scotland with the Clyde. West and North of the Mull of Kintyre the charts are marked with 'here be monsters' and fearsome tidal gates and rock-strewn anchorages seem a stressful combination compared to the sheltered waters and big marinas they are used to. However, there is something for everyone here. Charter anywhere from Crinan to Ballachulish and you have the perfect combination of sheltered water, safe harbours and spectacular scenery, from Fort William to Craighouse on Jura and Tobermory at the top of the Sound of Mull.
For the more experienced sailor the whole West Coast including the Outer Hebrides is accessible on a two week charter, and it is even possible to start your charter further North so you don;t even need to round Ardnamurchan.
This website will tell you a bit more about the cruising area, and will offer links to charter companies, publications and websites which will help you to enjoy this world class cruising ground.
