Little Cumbrae


On the way i had a visit from one of the many seals. This chap was very inquisative coming very close and not showing any fear at all.  As you can see i have a new toy fitted to the deck its a waterproof video cam!!!! i have just started to use this so look out for some clips soon. i will have to turn off the mic as it picks up every sound even the bad jokes we tell as we paddle lol




A few months back i spent a weekend stuck on Little Cumbrae and this is Long Bay where I camped. It has a nice pebble beach to land on.




Looking north west from Long bay. Millport to the right.



Rounding the north of the island I was looking back towards the castle.




Time for lunch.



This is a very beautiful castle standing strong with a watchfull eye on the Clyde.

    have not seen any dolphins for a wee while now. but did see them last year between little cumbrae and bute. they were jumping clean out the water about 100 yards from me. i was amazed as i was not aware we had dolphins here in the clyde.
