Hebrides Swim Camp
In collaboration with Basking Shark Scotland
Service Description
INNER HEBRIDES - 3 Nights 28 - 31 May 2027 AIM: SWIM FINGALS CAVE 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. Upon booking I will provide you with your Camp Catalogue which details where I'll be camping along with alternative accommodation listings and everything you need to know! 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 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 - which last year, was a success - although this is dependent on weather, conditions and swell. Other possible swim locations include Mull & Iona for example. 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 an optional, additional guided local swim on the afternoon of arrival. Example Itinerary: Friday - afternoon/evening gathering, swim, chat & connect. Saturday - Tour day 1 & optional meet up for evening food. Sunday - Tour day 2 & optional meet up for evening food. Monday - optional morning swim. Only 9 places available!
