Absolutely fabulous island trip. Nick our skipper was caring, kind and extremely knowledgeable. These guys go the extra mile to give you the best experience possible. Highly recommended

We went for a rib tour with North Coast water sports and it was absolutely incredible. The skipper, Nick, was very knowledgeable about the geology and wildlife around the North Islands, we all came away having had a great experience. He was happy to take requests on where we wanted to look, but also took us to some incredible spots including caves, stacs and arches. The team were very accommodating with letting us bring our small dog on with us to enjoy the ride! I’d definitely recommend, it was 100% worth the money spent. We will be telling friends and family to do the same tour if they visit Scotland.

The boat trip with Nick was easily the highlight of our trip for my mums 60th! Nick was super friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Cannot recommend this enough. So glad we did it. Thanks Nick!

Great experience with skipper Nick wonderful descriptions of the islands and the sea and the environment that surrounds them. A new experience going through a tunnel arch. For a mixed group of 7 to 70 we were all amazed at the experience.

Our rib tour of the islands in the Tongue estuary was fantastic. We have waited over a decade to get close to Rabbit, Seal, and Neave islands, and Nick our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and a safe skipper to take us out on the ‘high seas’. This tour gives you another more dramatic view of the islands that you can never get from the shore. Anyone interested in geology, ornithology, sea-life or highland island life, will thoroughly enjoy getting up close and personal on this trip.

This was the best boat trip I’ve ever been on!! Iona and Finn were the perfect hosts, making us feel so safe and sharing all their brilliant knowledge about the area and the islands we explored. As someone who can be a bit nervous about going on boats, I highly recommend booking this! The location is stunning, exploring the cliffs, caves, bays and island of the northern coast around Skerray. And we even saw loads of seals at the end which was a complete surprise! Excited to book again and hopefully we’ll be lucky enough to see some whales and dolphins next time. Thank you North Coast Watersports for the best time!!
