A 3-night cruise is a great way to be introduced to this wonderful part of Scotland and have a short break from the pressures of daily life. Set off from Portavadie and explore the sheltered waters of Loch Fyne, one of the longest and most scenic sea lochs in Europe, with a stunning coastline. Cruise out into the more open waters of the Sound of Bute and, given good weather conditions head for the stunning Island of Arran with the tiny and idyllic Holy Island just off shore. Return to Holy Loch by the Kyles of Bute, with remote anchorages and lots of wildlife to spot.
