SUP Multi Day Trips
Travelling places on your SUP at one with nature on the sea or on the river from one night to multi days
Mull SUP Explorer
£375 for 5 days
The Isle of Mull is an absolutely stunning location for SUP - or indeed any outdoor activity. I ahve been guiding folk around the island for 5 years now, and it never fails to impress - the fact I keep returning is indicative in itself.
​
This 5 day offering is looking at undertaking 3 day trips and an overnight, making use of the best 2 days to go that little bit further than you can in a day. Folk are responsible for booking their own accomodation with the course fee covering the guiding only.
​
THe island itself conjures up the names of Iona, Fishnish, Craignure, Salen, Geometra, Tobermory and Calgary to name but a few with the opportunity to paddel in the area of most of these, the all important cafes and fish and chips fomr the pier in Tobermory also being key!
​
Wildlife abounds in the area with dolphins, sea eagles, whales and otters making regular appearances during our trips. We have also had basking sharks with orcas making a regular visit to the area - have not been lucky enough to see those yet.
​
Mull is an amazing place and I very much look forward to showing you the beauty of the island from a SUP.
​
Is it for me - you are able to control and paddle your baord in force 3 winds and have undertaken journeys of arund 15km in a day. If you are unsure gthen get in contact for a chat.
Wye explore
From £130 per person including campsite fees
The Wye is justifiably popular and a weekend on this varied and interesting waterway is a great introduction to SUP touring.
​
The team will launch on the Friday evening for short paddle to the first campsite where they will tuck up for the night. The following morning will see the team paddle their longest day to another campsite before a shorter paddle on the Sunday to finish mid afternoon on the Sunday. Sunday will include paddling through Symonds Yat with its gorge like feel and the running of the infamous Symonds Yat rapids before a finish in Monmouth.
​
Is it for me?
You are quite comfortable on your board and can paddle it where you want to be with normally successful accuracy. There will be scope for some personal coaching during the trip with you leaving a more confident paddler both technically and with extended river understanding.
​
Touring Boards and camping equipment can be hired at extra cost. Get in touch for a personalised approach to your needs.

A 5 day trip taking in the length of Loch Awe before descending the River Awe and onto Loch Etive. A trip in the Grandeur of the Etive hills and an appropriately timed passage of the famed Falls of Lora before a more coastal feel to finish in Oban.
A distance of approximately 60km in 5 days taking in one of Scotland's longest Lochs, an easy(ish) white water river (which can be missed out if desired), a sea loch and a spectacular Coastal section. Wild camping along the way, carrying all our equipment on our boards or any other suitable craft folk choose to paddle.
Basic equipment needed for the trip would be:
Board with both touring and river fins, paddle and leash
Dry bags for equipment
Larger dry bags for the above (a couple of 40lt bags should be sufficient)

3. You hire a touring board and dry bags from me but bring your own camping equipment. - £475
4. You hire everything from me except the clothes you will be wearing both on and off the water and also bring your own sleeping bag - £525
Is it for me?
You are confident paddling your board over distance, and have undertaken journeys of approximately 10km in length. Camping experience is not essential although some experience is beneficial in order to get the most from the trip. Previous river experience on moving water is not necessary as this can be portaged easily if desired.
Participants are responsible for travel to Loch Awe as well as any accommodation before or after the trip.
We may also need to use participants vehicles for the shuttle logistics at the beginning and end of the expedition.
