Come and snorkel, paddle, hike and relax your way around the Small Isles on this all-in island expedition. Each day is packed with water-based activities, island visits and time to enjoy local food, wild landscapes and evenings round the fire—all with expert guides and all equipment provided.
Thursday – Day 1
Arrive on the Isle of Eigg and settle into your twin-share pod, located close to the shoreline and communal facilities. After lunch (at your own cost) at the Galmisdale Café & Tearoom, you’ll take part in your first snorkel session in the waters around Eigg. In the evening, the group returns to the tearoom for dinner and a relaxed start to the week.
Friday – Day 2
Travel by boat to the Isle of Muck for a snorkelling session led by your guide. Lunch will be at the island’s tearoom, paid for by guests themselves, before an afternoon walk around Muck. Back on Eigg, a sunset paddleboard session is followed by a beach BBQ to close the day.
Saturday – Day 3
Breakfast is served before heading to the Isle of Rum for snorkelling in its reef-rich waters. After another lunch at your own cost, explore the island on foot before returning to Eigg for an evening around the fire with dinner cooked over an open fire, axe throwing, archery and bushcraft skills.
Sunday – Day 4
Day 4 takes you to Canna for the final island snorkel session. Guests will eat at Café Canna at their own expense before exploring historic features and trails. Returning to Eigg, the group visits the island’s caves before the last group meal.
Monday – Day 5
After your final breakfast, you'll set off on a guided hike to the top of An Sgùrr, Eigg’s iconic pitchstone ridge or visit the Loch's beneath it for a wild swim. Lunch is back at the Galmisdale Café & Tearoom before saying your goodbyes and catching the afternoon ferry.
Based on the Isle of Eigg, this expedition gives you access to one of Scotland’s most characterful islands, surrounded by dramatic cliffs, basalt ridges and kelp-lined bays. The island’s off-grid community and quiet pace of life make it the perfect base for water sports and relaxed exploration. You'll stay in twin-share pods close to the shoreline and within walking distance of the pier, shower/toilet facilities, bar and tearoom.
Rib trips and short ferry crossings will take you to Muck, Rum and Canna throughout the expedition. Each island offers unique snorkelling sites, rich marine life, and walking opportunities. Wildlife sightings are common during travel between islands—look out for seals, whales, dolphins and seabirds, and with luck, you might spot a basking shark or porpoise en route.
You’ll stay in well-insulated twin-share pods just a short walk from the water. Each pod includes a fridge, kettle, and optional bedding pack, with enough space to store your gear and dry off after a day in the sea. They’re warm, simple and ideal for resting up between activities.
Shower and toilet facilities are located in a nearby building, along with drying rooms and washing machines. Hot showers are available at £3 for 5 minutes, and there’s plenty of communal space to relax and prepare for the next day's adventures.
No previous snorkelling or paddleboarding experience is required. All water sessions are guided and tailored to the conditions, with instruction and safety support provided throughout.
A good base level of fitness is recommended, as most days involve multiple activities including snorkelling, walking and paddleboarding. You’ll need to be comfortable sharing a twin pod with another guest, please get in touch if your require any more information on this as a bell tent is also available.
This trip is run by a team of qualified BSAC snorkel guides, RYA skippers, BCA paddleboard instructors and bushcraft leaders, with a strong understanding of the local waters, wildlife and island conditions. Every element is designed to support beginners while offering depth for more experienced participants.
With a maximum group size of six, the experience stays personal, flexible and supportive. You’ll get to know your guides and fellow guests while enjoying meals together, campfire evenings, and time outdoors. From the comfort of your pod to the salty swims and the chance to explore island life from a local perspective, this expedition offers a balance of adventure, nature and proper down-time.
Participants do not need to be expert swimmers to take part in the water-based activities. The snorkelling and paddleboarding sessions are all guided by qualified instructors who provide tailored support to ensure safety and enjoyment regardless of ability. Bouyancy aids and flotation devices are provided, and you will always be in sight of your guide during water sessions.
The focus is on making sure everyone feels comfortable and confident in the water, so even beginners are welcome. If you have any concerns about swimming or water confidence, it’s best to discuss them before booking to ensure the guides can prepare appropriately for your needs.
The trip involves multiple activities each day, including snorkelling, paddleboarding, and walking on uneven island terrain. A reasonable level of fitness is recommended to fully enjoy these experiences, as you’ll be active for several hours daily. The guided hikes, especially the ascent of An Sgùrr, require stamina and some experience with walking on rocky or uneven surfaces. We usually allow 2.5 hours to reach the summit.
However, the pace is flexible, and guides tailor activities to suit the group’s abilities. There is also ample downtime built into the schedule for rest and relaxation, allowing participants to manage their energy levels throughout the week.
It’s important to bring suitable clothing for changing weather conditions, including waterproofs, warm layers, and swimwear for water activities. Sturdy walking shoes or boots are essential for island hikes and uneven paths. A towel, sun protection, and reusable water bottles are also recommended.
Basic toiletries and personal items will be needed, but bedding is provided, a sleeping bag and pillow. Since the accommodation is in simple twin-share pods, packing light with practical, quick-drying clothes is best for ease and comfort.
Accommodation consists of insulated twin-share pods located close to the shoreline and communal facilities. Each pod includes basic amenities such as a fridge, kettle and camping stove with space for drying and storing gear after water sessions. The pods provide a warm and comfortable place to rest after active days outdoors.
Shared shower and toilet facilities are in a nearby building, with drying rooms and washing machines available. Hot showers can be accessed for a small fee. The accommodation offers a simple but practical base suited to the expedition’s focus on outdoor activities.
Meals are provided as outlined in the itinerary, often featuring locally sourced ingredients and traditional dishes from the islands. This includes breakfasts, and evening meals at local cafes or communal settings like beach BBQs and open-fire dinners. Lunches are not included.
The food is designed to be hearty and suitable for active participants. If you have any dietary requirements or allergies, these should be communicated well in advance to ensure suitable options can be arranged.
The trip is open to participants aged 12 and over, making it suitable for young teenagers as well as adults. Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian throughout the expedition to ensure appropriate supervision and support.
The guides are experienced in working with mixed-age groups and will provide a safe and welcoming environment for all. It’s recommended to discuss any specific needs or concerns regarding younger participants before booking.
