The outer Hebrides isles, translated from ancient Norse as "the Isles on the Edge of the sea", and they certainly feel like it!
Located on the very southern tip of the Outer Hebrides island chain, a sea kayaking trip out to Mingulay and Barra Head must be one of the UK`s classic trips.
It offers amazing scenery and sense of wilderness with cliffs , caves, arches and strong tides in a totally isolated and full exposed location. This trip can only be attempted in settled conditions
This video, along with part two, tells the story of our expedition out there in 2021
