So much to see & do…
Perfect for walking, sailing, fishing, golfing and relaxing!
The beaches on our doorstep are amongst the cleanest in Europe, warmed by the Gulf Stream they are perfect for paddling, snorkeling and swimming. There are spectacular walks in the area including one along the banks of Loch Morar, the deepest stretch of fresh water in Europe, and reputed home of Nessie’s sister Morag. Another short walk leads to “the Cross” which affords a panoramic view point with breathtaking outlook to the local hills and Loch Morar. If wildlife is your thing then there are plenty of opportunities for close sightings of whales, dolphins, sales, sharks, otters, puffins, golden eagles, sea eagles, shearwaters and much more. For golfers, the stunning 9 hole course at Traigh (pronounced Try) is just 5 minutes by car. If you like fishing then you will not be disappointed! There are plenty of spots to cast your rod however if you want to fish on Loch Morar you will need a permit. For a unique experience try pony trekking on Silver Sands of Morar!
If you like the outdoors then you will not be disappointed…alternatively why not just relax on the beach!
The West coast of Scotland is famous for its sunsets…we think ours are the best!
The best way to explore our coastline is from the sea…there are plenty of boat trips available, from slow adventure cruising to wildlife spotting.
The Local Area…
Morar is a small village with a local Primary School, a hotel, Thai food takeaway, train station and local buses for you to explore our neighbouring villages of Arisaig and Mallaig. Mallaig is only 2 miles away and is your gateway to the Isle of Skye and the Small Isles of Rhum, Canna and Eigg. Catch the ferry for a day trip to Skye or explore the Small Isles. Local boat trips are also available for fishing and wildlife spotting. For something different why not experience a tailor made adventure with Minch Adventures!
