Hebrides Swim Camp
In collaboration with Basking Shark Scotland & Take to the Water
Service Description
*FULLY BOOKED* INNER HEBRIDES - 3 Nights, 2 full boat Days How do Swim Camps work? Swim Camps have been designed to facilitate epic swims and adventures in iconic places whilst providing as much flexibility as possible. Travel to the meeting point (Oban), accommodation and meals are not included - giving you full flexibility. I'll be camping in my roof tent and will provide those wanting to camp, with Oban campsite details once I have booked (many aren't yet open for 2026 bookings). You can choose how long you stay but the night proceeding day 1, Saturday night, and the night of the day 2 tour will be the recommended minimum. Swim Camp Hebrides We are so lucky to have managed to charter the phenomenal Basking Shark Scotland AND Lynda of Take to the Water, for 2 days of boat tripping and swimming! Unrivaled experts, hugely experienced in the seas and on the islands we plan to visit. We will board the RIB each tour morning, from Oban, and be transported to 2 or 3 magical swim locations each day. Think white sands, emerald sea, waterfalls, arches or caves. Our aim is to be skippered to the uninhabited island of Staffa to swim in to the mighty Fingal's Cave - although this is dependent on weather, conditions and swell. Other possible swim locations include Mull & Iona. Most swims will be short, taking in the beauty and tranquility of each unique location. If conditions allow us to get to Staffa, a sea swim of approx 100m is required to reach Fingal's Cave. There will be optional, additional guided local swims on the afternoon of the 8th and morning of the 11th. Example Itinerary: Friday 8th May - afternoon/evening gathering, swim, chat & connect. Saturday 9th May - Tour day 1 & optional meet up for evening food. Sunday 10th May - Tour day 2 & optional meet up for evening food. Monday 11th May - optional morning swim. Only 9 places available!
