About us
Kayak Scotland is based in Aviemore in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park. We run kayak trips throughout Scotland, these range from day trips on the Moray Firth to multi day trips on Scotland's stunning west coast, a world class sea kayaking destination.
Kayaking is one of the best ways to experience Scotland's wildlife, these craft allow you to get close to nature, sea birds and other marine wildlife seem to tolerate a sea kayak more than other powered craft allowing for some amazing wildlife encounters.
