Remote, raw, and utterly unforgettable, St Kilda is Britain’s wild edge — a place of Atlantic swells, skyscraper sea stacks, and skies filled with seabirds. Starting from Harris, we make the big open-water crossing (weather permitting), explore Hirta and the surrounding stacks, then return with a story you’ll tell for life. This is a true expedition for fit paddlers, blending challenge and reward on a scale few places can match. Along the way we camp on wild shores, paddle beneath the UK’s highest sea cliffs, and share the water with puffins, gannets, skuas, and even minke whales. As Joe says: “Bucket-list paddling. It’s challenging, but the reward is off the scale.” – Joe Alexander.
