We are situated close to Oban where we fish or do single day cruises on the west Coast of Scotland, taking our passengers to see some of the most unspoiled cruising grounds in Europe. This area throngs with all sorts of wildlife, from Sea Eagles to Orca and Otters to Basking sharks. If we have no bookings that might potentially conflict, we are more than happy to take you any place that is in range, [approx 720 miles per Tank] after all we like to experience all that the interesting world of seaways has to offer, one day we might have a one day fishing trip scheduled , and the next a trip which takes in the islands of West Scotland then into Ireland Wales and up the Seine to the centre of Paris. However for anything which might be a little out of the ordinary as much notice as possible is desirable for proper planning and making sure we have on board the necessary charts. The Beaux Sun offers a variety of charter periods: · Day outings, usually 8 or 12 hours * Normally at the end of October the Boat is hauled out and placed on the hard standing for any necessary maintenance and then returned to the water in March , but if you have a need for our services in that time it can be arranged but there will be additional expenses. |
| [CRUISING HOLIDAYS]
Come as a family or existing group of friends, or join other people wanting a similar style of holiday. Previous experience is NOT required. The maximum number of guests we like to cater for in this event is 8 people. Because sometimes guests might want to stay on a beautiful remote island overnight singing around a campfire and talking about the way thing used to be when they were a child, we carry a 6 person tent and portable camping stoves, so you can light a fire to cook the fish you caught on spits over the fire you've built. |
