Join us for a family-friendly weekend cruise, perfect for all ages!

It’s not all about sailing on this cruise, it’s about maximising fun and getting the kids involved and excited about spending time outside, learning to sail and connecting with nature.

We will set sail from Largs to circumnavigate The Isle of Cumbrae, drive the dinghy, explore abandoned castles, and without a doubt get an ice cream on Millport Pier.

We will overnight anchored under the stars, a magical experience for everyone aboard.

Looking back to last year on one of our Oban to Largs cruises.

A dry crisp breeze, the kind you can see for miles in. Oil skins on and the sun warmed our backs as we sailed North up Loch Linnhe. Tacking our way between Lismore and Appin, carried north by the tide.

We have two berths remaining on our Oban to Largs cruise on the 28th of April.
