Our Boat Trips: Loch Coruisk Boat Trips with us need to be experienced to be believed! The climax of your boat trip will be the awesome view when you arrive at Loch Coruisk itself as it sits in the heart of the Cuillin hills in the south west of the Isle of Skye. But there is much to see and hear about along the journey to Loch Coruisk as well! As you leave the village of Elgol, you will be surrounded by some of the most magnificent scenery to be found anywhere in the world. You will cruise past the Small Isles of the Inner Hebrides on your left. `
Our Area: What makes Loch Coruisk, Elgol and the whole of the Isle of Skye such a special place which holds a place in the hearts of so many? Find out more about our wonderful area here! Loch Coruisk truly is inspirational. The Isle of Skye is famous for its local music and culture, and probably the most famous song which mentions the island is “The Skye Boat Song” (now best known as the ‘Outlander’ TV theme tune!) Few, however, realise that there is a direct connection between the Skye Boat Song and Loch Coruisk.
Wildlife: The only wildlife we guarantee are the many seals near Loch Coruisk, and a variety of birds. We are primarily a boat trip to Loch Coruisk and our main focus is on the loch and the incredible scenery nearby. However, though we are not strictly speaking a ‘wildlife tour’ we do have a huge amount of wildlife sightings every season. We have very frequent sightings of basking sharks, dolphins, sea eagles and porpoises, and a fair amount of sightings of other wildlife such as minke whales, golden eagles, puffins and more.
