Island Hopping Adventure from Scotland to Ireland

The journey from Scotland to Ireland is a captivating exploration of the rugged beauty and rich history of these Celtic lands. Starting in the picturesque port of Oban, you’ll sail through the enchanting Hebrides, a region known for its dramatic landscapes and vibrant wildlife. The islands of Jura and Islay offer a glimpse into Scotland’s natural splendour, with their rolling hills and serene waters.

Sailing in this region is both exhilarating and rewarding. The modern yacht Cherokee provides a comfortable and stable platform for exploring these waters, with opportunities for hands-on sailing under the guidance of an experienced skipper. The sheltered waters of the Hebrides and the Irish coast make for relaxed sailing, perfect for both seasoned sailors and newcomers.

Onshore, there’s plenty to explore. From the historic castles and lush forests of Scotland to the lively pubs and cultural landmarks of Ireland, each stop offers a unique experience. The journey concludes in Belfast, a city rich in history and culture, where you can explore its famous murals and vibrant nightlife.

The cuisine in this region is a delightful mix of traditional and modern flavours. Enjoy fresh seafood, hearty stews, and the famous whiskies of Islay. In Ireland, savour the local dishes and perhaps indulge in a pint of Guinness.

The history of this area is steeped in tales of ancient clans, Viking invasions, and maritime adventures. The islands and coastal towns you visit have stories to tell, from the refuge of Robert the Bruce on Rathlin Island to the shipbuilding heritage of Belfast.

The best time to visit is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mild and the days are long. This is the perfect time to enjoy the stunning landscapes and vibrant culture of Scotland and Ireland.
