"I know of no place like the cabin of a well-found yacht where this feeling of content is so strongly emphasised, especially after a hard day's sailing." (Isle, Ben and Loch, from the Clyde to Skye. S Heckstall Smith, Edward Arnold, London, 1932). I do agree with Heckstall Smith writing in the 1930s, but you should still get out and about to see and do things. After all, there is so much to see around here. And to do. Too much! What to choose all depends on what you fancy, so click on an activity below to find out which anchorages to aim for. I have tried to be reasonably selective where the choice is huge, but the choice does rather reflect my own taste. As you may have spotted. Of course I cannot possibly agree with Samuel Johnson who travelled to the Hebrides in very different times "Of these Islands it must be confessed, that they have not many allurements, but to the mere lover of naked nature. The inhabitants are thin, provisions are scarce, and desolation and penury give little pleasure" (A Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland. Samuel Johnson, 1775, Ed RW Chapman, Oxford University Press, 1970).
