Campsite - Argyll Kayaker Coves

First Brendan, then Ciara, both have disrupted clubs wishing to meet at the cove! However, despite a month or so of stormy weather we have managed to make progress with our developments. Here’s hoping Denis isn’t too much of a menace !!

0430 this morning was the arrival of the winter gales, but we were fortunate enough to have a glorious November weekend

A visit from two otters! These two were captured playing on the pontoon by a recent guest.

As we approach the beginning of September it has been a busy summer at the cove! We have welcomed many kayakers, campers and other visitors touring Scotland from around the world, and have enjoyed meeting and sharing our home with them! Below are a couple of photo updates from the season featuring some artwork left by recent guests, a couple of playful otters, and ships passing through Cuan Sound...

The weather for April and May so far has been brilliant! With this it’s been busy at the cove......

Spring they say !

It’s been a while, but over the past few weeks we have had snow, dolphins,gales, sea eagles and a few hardy kayakers visiting, if it’s not a jcb Cuan is driving then he will help bail the boat! We hope all visitors to the cove have safe adventures this year. We have a small campground , or space for a few small campervans, with hook up if necessary. Then there is the Mary Heather and Alexandra lifeboats, both can accommodate 6, or alternatively we have a wee bunk room that can accommodate 5. Or you can just park up and try and spot some of the wild life. Whatever kind of adventure you are on we look forward to welcoming you.

A few groups making the most of some winter sunshine, whilst clearing up from the storms

A group from Edinburgh university with Kenny Lacey, Sea Kayak Scotland, prepare for a 2 night expedition around the Isle of Seil

Some warm sunshine at last on the west coast made conditions favourable for a gathering of SSKEG. Eleven paddlers preparing for the crossing to Belnahua, then taking in the Eilean Dubh isles, through the Grey Dog and around Luing returning to Cuan Sound and Argyll Kayaker Cove

A glorious late February weekend: our guests in Alexandra lifeboat and Cuan Bunkroom were treated to a dolphin display..... the sun shone for work on our new lifeboat the Mary Heather.... and for the first time in 10 years the 6 nations Calcutta cup stayed in Scotland !!!
