The effects of global warming?

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?

I'm currently writing a sea kayaking guidebook for the Northwest Highlands; Cape Wrath to Ardnamurchan Point including Skye & the Small Isles. This blog will keep you updated as to my progress and hopefully the blog and in turn the book will inspire you experience the Northwest Highlands by sea kayak yourself.
