on the water

Sunnybrae Caravan Park is perfectly situated for exploring the many local islands, inlets and skerries, both above and below the water. With regular dolphin and porpoise sightings during the summer, and a wide range of other marine life there is plenty to occupy you on the water. (if you don't own a boat yourself, there is no need to miss out, see our links to tour operators in the area!)

The area is perfect for exploration by boat, with uninhabited islands to discover and small sandy beaches hidden away.

Our first concern is your safety, and we ask that you inform us before bringing a boat, so that we can be certain of its suitability. The area is reknowned for its tidal flows and natural spectacles, such as the Corrywreckan Whirlpool. Obviously, the conditions that make it such a unique area are also those that make it essential that all craft are sea-worthy, sufficiently powerful and that the users are fully aware of tides and weather conditions.

Our mooring is quite substantial as it consists of a 1 tonne concrete block on the end of 10 metres of 20mm galvanised chain with a running line to shore.

kayaking

Sunnybrae is ideally placed on the Cuan Sound, offering easy access to the more sheltered waters to the east of Luing and Seil, including Clachan Sound, Ardmaddy Bay and the island of Torsa. To the west of Cuan Sound are the more challenging waters of the Firth of Lorn. There are also a number of points on the island accessible by car from which you can launch canoes to explore sheltered bays and skerries. The trip round the Isle of Seil was recently listed as one of the top ten kayaking trips in Scotland, in The Herald newspaper.


Unfortunately, the area is not suitable for jet ski's or similar vessels, water skiing or inflatables.
