About
This is a step from our standard Coasteering trip with bigger jumps, more swell and more 'committing' swims, all in the shadow of World War 2 Loch Ewe Battlements and views across the Minch towards the Northern tip of Lewis. Having been Coasteering (or similar activity such as Canyoning, Surfing etc) is advised and having a good level of fitness as the swims are a bit longer than our standard trip.
