Skye Coastal Wildlife Walk
A gentle two days along Skye's western shores watching for sea eagles, otters, seals and whales.
About this trip
Skye's indented western coastline is one of the best places in Britain to see wildlife from the path. Over two relaxed days we walk the low cliffs and headlands around Neist Point and Waternish, scanning for white-tailed sea eagles, otters working the tideline, seals hauled out on the skerries and, in season, minke whales offshore.
With a knowledgeable wildlife guide, binoculars provided and short, easy walking each day, it suits all abilities. One night's accommodation and coastal transport are included — bring a camera and patience.
