Glorious views of Loch Lomond today ☀️☀️☀️

DID YOU KNOW that all our skippers give a live commentary on our cruises? So as well as taking you to the most amazing locations around the loch, they’ll tell you the history of the area, the wildlife you might spot and there might even be the odd wee joke or two thrown in! Here’s Skipper Archie showing us how it’s done.

We welcomed @scotlands_stories on board with us last week and here’s their story of their time on Inchcailloch Island…..‘ How can I get a picture with this view of Loch Lomond?’ I hear you ask! Well, while everybody else is on the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond, you're going to need to get yourself to Inchcailloch, one of the 22 islands in the middle. Molly and I took the scenic journey by booking a trip with @cruiselochlomond which left from the wee village of Luss on the west bank. The trip took a wee tour around the loch with expert commentary on some of the other islands along the way. No wallabies to be seen, but the Ospreys were out and about! Inchcailloch has been on my bucketlist for a while and it didn't disappoint, especially on a day like this. It's not a huge island, but there's still stories to discover. Buried in the undergrowth, but easy to find, you'll come across a ruined church and a jumble of old gravestones. This is the church of St Kentigerna, the mother of St Fillan who allegedly established a little chapel on this site in the 8th century. Inchcailloch is said to be named after her, translating as the island of the old woman or cowled woman meaning a nun! Amazing to think this was once a parish church and locals would row across the loch every Sunday up until 1621, true dedication. If you can read through the moss then you'll find a lot of Macfarlanes and Macgregors buried here, including Rob Roy's uncle once the Macgregor Clan Chief. After a couple hours of wandering the forest tracks and climbing to the summit of this little hill for the panorama, we still had an hour before Cruise Loch Lomond came to get us. Plenty of time for a wee dip in the shallow bay at Port Brawn, much needed for both Molly and I to cool off. This was easily up there with one of the most enjoyable things I've done all year and hopefully it's convinced you to get out there the next time you're visiting Loch Lomond and explore! It can get busy so book ahead and you can look through a range of boat trips like this through the @stirlingalive website - www.yourstirling.com I reckon Molly would agree that this summer, happiness is a bookable experience!

MAGICAL ISLANDS This was Inchcailloch Island yesterday, a wee taste of the Mediterranean on Loch Lomond! Departures from Luss daily: 10.00am 11.30am 1.15pm Adults £18.00 Child £10.00 Departures daily. We recommend booking online over the busy summer period. * Leave plenty of time to park your car and to make your way to the Luss Pier. ???? https://www.cruiselochlomond.co.uk/island-explorer

We hosted an incredible wedding on board yesterday at @thecruin for Fraser and Julie! A beautiful day for a lovely couple! Here’s our crew member Helle walking down the pier to greet the boats.

You Can Now Sail From Braehead On This New River Clyde Boat Tour

Shop, park and sail away with this new Glasgow boat tour.

A new River Clyde boat tour which takes people past numerous Glasgow sights from Braehead has launched today (August 2). Passengers on board the new vessel known as Tonka, will be able to take a trip “up and doon the watter” to Glasgow city centre and back.

The trip will operate from the boating pontoon at Braehead shopping centre – behind Krispy Kreme –making it convenient for all as you can simply park up and sail away down the Clyde. Forget park and ride, park and cruise is the new journey to take!

Clyde Charters, which is behind the new hour-long boat ride, has announced that several sailings will take place every Monday starting from August 2. Whilst on board, passengers will hear all about the sights they see on their boat trip with a description written by Iain Quinn, who has been responsible for the commentary on the famous Waverley paddle steamer.

Peter Beagley, Braehead’s centre director, said: “Taking a river cruise from Braehead on the Tonka will give people a new and amazing perspective of the amazing sights and history of the riverside all the way to Glasgow. It can make for a fantastic day out for the family with free parking at the centre and lots of shops, cafes and restaurants only a short walk across our boardwalk from the pontoon.”

Ronnie Doolan, of Clyde Charters said: “You’ll get up closer than you could ever imagine to the best sights on the upper Clyde, like the TS Queen Mary, Glasgow’s famous King George V docks, Glasgow distillery, Tall Ship Glenlee and the River Kelvin with views to the University of Glasgow.”

Ronnie added: “Iain Quinn who writes our commentary has a wealth of knowledge and his stories are guaranteed to raise a few eyebrows.” Passengers will also pass the Transport Museum, Crowne Plaza hotel, the BBC and STV buildings, new warships under construction at Govan, the Azamara cruise ships and even sail over the top of the Clyde tunnel. Plus, if you are really lucky, the PS Waverley may be at her berth whilst on your trip down the river.

Clyde Charters also offer tours to visit the sugar boar shipwreck at Greenock too.

50th Anniversary Sugar Boat Tour

This year marks 50 years since the sinking of what is now Greenock’s biggest visitor attraction, the iconic shipwreck of the MV Captayannis.

This wreck has become a landmark of the River Clyde and provides a unique opportunity to explore a piece of history from our local area. The ship has been stripped of valuable metals and fittings over the years, though some of her wooden decking remains in remarkably good condition after more than 40 years in the sea.

She settled at a 90 degree angle to the water where she has remained ever since. Over the years, she has become a haven for various birds and sea-life animals who have made home in the wreckage. This trip gives you the opportunity to see this wildlife up close and get within touching distance of the Sugar Boat.

Duration: 1 Hour

Meeting Point: James Watt Dock Marina, Greenock

Capacity: 12 Passengers

Join us for a boat trip down the Forth and Clyde

Relax and escape for a few hours down the almost forgotten waterway. The canals are teeming with life and beauty, sit and watch the world slowly trickle by onboard our homely narrowboat.

For the duration of the journey you will be given the run of the inside of the boat while we skipper out back, and you will be invited to try your hand at steering the boat, a fantastic way to relax and find yourself truly living in the moment.

Our short trip takes roughly two to two and a half hours and consists of a trip to the Maryhill Locks . This trip takes a secret route meandering through the city of Glasgow taking in beautiful views of the West End.

Upon arriving at Maryhill Locks there is a fantastic little cafe selling tapas food, the Velovan Bike Cafe .

The Mary Hill Locks are a flight of 5 locks leading the way to Bowling and onto the River Clyde. Unfortunately, we are unable to go through these locks at this time. At the top of the Locks customers are given the opportunity to assist in turning the boat around using ropes and the power of the wind rather than the engine before beginning our return journey to the home mooring.

The long boat trip takes us to Kirkintilloch , the so called Canal Capital of Scotland. This trip shares the first half hour of the short trip, but then takes a turning in the direction of the River Forth before arriving at the Maryhill Locks.

This is a full day out on the boat and takes roughly two and a half hours to reach Kirkintilloch. The majority of our trips call in for lunch at The Stables Pub . If you are joining us with children there is a fantastic barge here called Craft Daft on a Raft offering great activities for children. Alternatively, Cadder Wharf is a beautiful spot along the canal for a picnic.

We will bring a homemade cake for the long trips which last roughly seven and a half hours and costs £250. If you are interested in booking a boat trip please do get in touch, we will do all we can to ensure the day meets your wishes, from adjusting the length of the trip to decorating the boat.
