Slowlymovesouthdown Islay’s

coastline, with the Isle of Jura on

your east, and take in the dramatic

scenery of rolling green landscapes

and glacial beaches. Those keen on

sport can take part in a day of deer

stalking on a private estate, only a

stone’s throw from the yacht, or go

heli-fishing for brown trout in the

numerous surrounding lochs.

Alternatively, make the most of the

yacht’s toybox and take kayaks or

paddleboards to meet the

surrounding seal colonies.

Enjoyaspectacular helicopter ride

across Islay to Loch Gruinart, an

RSPB sanctuary that is an important

refuge for many of Britain’s unique

bird species. Indulge in the freshly

caught seafood, local venison and

home-reared beef in a remote stone

bothy (cottage) in the heart of the

island. In the afternoon, join the

island’s most experienced scallop

diver in Lagavulin Bay. Enjoy your

fresh catch of scallops, lobster and

brown crab during your final dinner

on board with a whisky specialist

before departing by private jet from

Islay airport the next morning.
