A Shetland Sea Kayaking Adventure - Residential 2025

Our Adventure - A true highlight of this year's course was the settled sea state and generally amazing weather. It was cold on a couple of days but mainly bright and dry. We got six days paddling in with the block busters and explored deep into caves which on occasion turned into tunnels! Zoe and my self managed to fit in a walk around the isle of Noss. We were rewarded with a super birds eye view, looking down on the gannets. Otters were spotted but to quick to get on film. Arriving on these incredible islands, you will feel like you have escaped it all. Discover a different pace of life as you explore untouched coasts and countryside, the fascinating depth of ancient history and outstanding wildlife. Roger visited Shetland first back in 2016 and delivered his first sea kayaking adventure from a static campsite. He has returned every year since, sometimes twice and the only upgrade was booking sole use of a well-located Bunkhouse/hostel. Some facts: Shetland comprises over one hundred islands, and only 15 are inhabited. There are 12 puffins for every resident human. Shetland is closer to the Arctic Circle (640 km) than to London (965 km) and is on the same latitude as Bergen, Norway. Shetland is also closer to Bergen, meaning summers can be cool, although has a similar rainfall to Devon. There are over 7000 recorded archaeological sites.

A superb sea kayaking location with crystal clear waters, sea stacks, big cliffs, huge caves, geos, gullies, arches, tunnels and outstanding wildlife - gannets, puffins, otters, dolphins, porpoises and the elusive orca! With its northern location, it's cooler, wild and very remote at times. The midge population is generally less than other Scottish islands. Roger paddled with Zoe around Shetland mainland in July 2025 a distance of 314 km, with nine days on the water and in a total of thirteen days due to allowing the swell to drop on Fitful Head, in the South West.
