With the air temperature hitting the high 20’s (degrees) last weekend, strange items of clothing and special pieces of gear were required. Sweating while paddling in only shorts and t-shirts is a bizarre experience in Scotland!

A swim in the cool waters of Sound of Arisaig at lunchtime on Saturday was pure bliss; as we needed to cool down. Swimming is not normally an activity conducted by sea kayakers paddling in the Northwest Highlands without wearing a drysuit or wetsuit. If this is what the weather is like in April, what will July be like?
