What To Expect
Once on board Yacht Chinwag we will give you a safety briefing before setting off on a sail out into the Firth of Lorne to your chosen lunch destination. There you can enjoy a relaxed leisurely lunch, enjoying fresh local seafood before sailing back to Oban.
Choose to lunch on board the yacht at anchor or go ashore to one of the fabulous local restaurants around the coast.
There are great photo opportunities and the wildlife is all around. There are usually inquisitive dolphins coming to check us out and play in the waves. You can be as hands on as you want on the boat or you can relax and take in the stunning scenery. There will be the skipper and a crew/host to ensure you have great day out on the sea. On your return sail we will drop the sails so that you can enjoy the last sail down the Sound for Kerrera with a dram of local whisky to celebrate and savour the day’s sail.
