Otter's Tail
Lamlash Pier Lamlash Isle of Arran KA27 8JN
Otter’s Tail offer a range of outdoor activities catering for everyone from family groups to experienced adventurers. You might fancy our family friendly gorge walk, or a half day kayak excursion. Or come for the whole day and we can kayak anywhere around Arran. Holy Isle, Pladda and Carradale are all lovely day trips by kayak. We love a dawn paddle, too. We run multi-day kayak expeditions around Arran and beyond. Maybe you’ve always wanted to paddle to Ailsa Craig? If the hills are calling you, we can help. We can guide you up any of the marvellous hills of Arran. We can spend a day in the hills, or we can night walk under the stars. We are happy to take our time, or would you prefer to do some fell running? Why not combine the hills and the sea and have a full day kayak adventure to the Holy Isle including a climb to the top? We’re always open to new ideas, too, so get in touch with your plans! All specialist equipment provided with tuition by well qualified, friendly and experienced staff.

Quirky Island Fact
#20 - Arran has Scotland's First No Take Zone
The Community of Arran Seabed Trust (COAST) is a local charity and was established in 1995 by local divers, Howard Wood and Don McNeish, who had noticed the depletion of species on the seabed. The No Take Zone at the north end of Lamlash, was eventually created, after much campaigning, in 2008, and COAST were instrumental in then establishing the Marine Protected Area (MPA) which covers the coast around the south of Arran.
