The “Wildlife and Castles” extended boat tour leaves from Oban Bay.
The route takes in sights of Dunollie Castle Ruin, Dunstaffnage Castle, Castle Stalker and Gylen Castle on the Island of Kerrera. This will allow plenty of opportunity to spot bird life such as Guillemots, Gannets, Terns and on a lucky day… a Sea Eagle!
