Island Cruising In The Outer Hebrides Of Scotland Aboard The MV Cuma
Island Cruising Hebrides offer six-day trips, from May to August, to remote Islands in the Outer Hebrides, also known as the Western Isles of Scotland.
We specialise in visits to the spectacular dual World Heritage Site of St Kilda, and other islands like Scarp, Taransay, The Monach Isles, and The Flannan Isles. The itinerary can be altered to suit, and can also include visits to North Rona and The Shiant Isles.
Inclement weather conditions can make a visit to St Kilda very challenging. Should such conditions occur, your highly experienced skipper shall seek a suitable weather window to enable a visit over the course of the trip.
While enjoying the beauty and majesty of the islands, our guests have the luxury of on-board accommodation, allowing extended stays to relax and appreciate the stunning views and observe the amazing wildlife, ending the days with a beautiful Hebridean sunset.
