What is good weather for kayaking? The key factor What is good weather for kayaking? The key factor is wind. Yes, sunshine is nice, but it doesn't necessarily make for the best kayaking session. A rainy calm day can be much easier kayaking than a sunny windy day. Guess what! We've got another calm day calming up tomorrow, and we've got spaces left this afternoon. Come and join us! Our waterproof cosy clothing will keep you warm and dry. #seakayakskye #kayaking #lovescotland #myskyetime #outdooradventures #skyeconnect #mistyisle #skye #isleofskye #familyholidays

Excellent day for staff training, putting the @valleyseakayaks Gemini and Genesis to the test, followed by a delicious lunch at @glenelg.inn and a pint at @dunbrewing . And of course we had a lovely journey on @glenelgskyeferry #kylerea #vepaddles #seakayakskye #peakpaddlesports #scottishcanoeing #seakayakskillscourse #seakayakskills #scottishseakayaking #paddleuk #learntokayak
Did you want to know about Day 5 of Paddle Skye? T Did you want to know about Day 5 of Paddle Skye? The forecast was for a miserable day with winds that even our experienced super paddlers didn't want to face. So we took a very gentle downwind run down Loch Duich and then a fast and furious surf to the end of Loch Long. Lots of smiles, amazing speeds and a lot of fun. And not all that much rain after all. #seakayakskye #vepaddles #paddleskye #seakayakskillscourse #scottishcanoeing #seakayakingadventures #outdooradventures #lovescotland #eileandonancastle #seakayakskills #scottishseakayaking #northshoreseakyaks #britishcanoeing #explorethewildside #skyeweather #paddleuk
Day 4 of Paddle Skye was scorching and we explored Day 4 of Paddle Skye was scorching and we explored Loch Scavaig and Soay. All photos were amazing, so it was hard to choose.

Day 3 of Paddle Skye took the team from Isle Ornsa Day 3 of Paddle Skye took the team from Isle Ornsay to Sandaig and then through the fast flowing stream of Kylerea to Kyleakin. Of course they had to play for a bit and learned about breaking in and out of the flow and to surf standing waves.

After a big Greek Feast and a wee dram sponsored b After a big Greek Feast and a wee dram sponsored by @torabhaig_distillery last night, now Day Two of our staff training. Yes, I know it's looking tropical, but it was baltic. What a beautiful spot to learn new coaching skills, refine our manoeuvering skills and establish our ethos and determine how to deliver the best possible day out to our clients. Thanks again to @doug.cooper.3979 for his support and encouragement.
