Really great shop, knowledgeable staff and good support when you're making decisions. Took a kayak for a demo and had lots of discussions around what I was looking for and what I was considering. Also did a navigation course through them, it was well organised and had a really positive experience

Had a fantastic session with Laura supported by Brad , which was a bespoke course for me to feel more comfortable in lumpy water and regaining confidence . The session was excellent - my confidence is at a whole new level and I understand so much better the theory in practice .Being coached ,supported and guided using my style of learning meant that previous technical mysteries now make sense to me . A great day for me and I loved every minute

We did a family morning tour on the 1st April with our two kids who were sligthly apprehensive. Brad and Mark looked after us very well making sure everyone was warm and dry and happy to be on the water. We had such a beautiful time paddling along the coast, listening to local stories. These guys are passionate about seakayaking but also their local environment and know a great deal about it. As I am writing this review, I am asking my wee son what he thought of it and he said "just write it was excellent Mum". Excellent it surely was!

I did the CNTP and sea kayak leader training with Laura. She was an amazing instructor. As I told her, I wish some of my uni lecturers had expressed themselves as good and with such clarity as she did.
She was very helpful as well explaining the differences between different kinds of kayak. Being able to explore those differences in the water was great. They have a lot of different kayaks and in different sizes so it was a lot of options to choose from.
The location was absolutely fenomenal. The whole weekend was great to build up my confidence paddling in the sea.

I’ve made a couple of online purchases from SKO, including a top of the range women’s Kokatat Odyssey suit. The chap I spoke with on the phone was so friendly and helpful, and really put me at ease with such an expensive purchase. I’ve also just ordered a KCS day trolley from them, which I’m looking forward to getting. Next year I’ll be in Oban for a kayaking trip around Mull, and I’ll definitely be popping into the store to get some more goodies! It’s always nice to support these smaller retailers, especially when the folks running the place are clearly passionate about what they do.

Very knowledgeable, friendly and approachable instructors who are able to adapt to different conditions and variable group skill levels, left me more confident and excited to return in the future!

I went on a two-day trip with Sea Kayak Oban. It was a fantastic experience, with an excellent guide who took us to places I would never have the confidence to go on my own. Absolutely Brilliant!

Had the pleasure of paddling with these guys for second time.
Booking process was straight forward, all pertinent info supplied in advance.
Meeting up on the morning, the weather didn’t look great but Laura and Phil had a sheltered route for us already planned. Geared up and away, a small group launched from an idyllic spot near the Cuan ferry.
For an inexperienced paddler the guys were absolutely brilliant, explaining exactly what we would be doing and why, dealing with the small patches of exposed weather/ conditions.
As the group progressed we got to know each a little better and had some really good conversations as we proceeded along, interspersed with facts and little stories of the area from Laura and Phil.
The location, the way they dealt with the conditions/ weather were all fantastic. I personally had a back issue and the guys were great in dealing with it, advising me and chaperoning me through.
Couldn’t have asked for a better day, better location or better guides. Thank you both for a great day.

Very enjoyable experience, after which was absolutely exhausted and desperately in need of fish and chips! Phil was very knowledgeable and took some great photos of us out in the bay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two days paddling with Phil. As we were staying on Luing, Phil planned our routes to maximise the opportunity to paddle around these beautiful islands, sharing his extensive knowledge of both the geological and social history of the area adding to that a healthy understanding of the local flora and fauna. He inspires confidence with his calm approach.
I would highly recommend him as a guide and look forward to paddling with him again.

We did the Experience Day and it was great for beginners, Laura was an excellent guide/instructor.

My daughter and I had a sea kayak experience day recently with Phil as our guide. It was a great day all round and can thoroughly recommend. We were inland the whole day so no rough seas to worry about but a lovely experience paddling around the shore spotting wildlife.

We loved our day out sea kayaking - our instructor was patient and encouraging, and helped us get the most out of our experience. We had lunch on a beautiful beach and even got time for a short walk when we stopped again in the afternoon. A perfect beginners sea kayaking trip.

Did a confidence builder 2 day course in September. Great professionally run kayaking centre. Oban area has everything to offer for those learning from beginners to advanced. From calm waters watching wildlife to challenging conditions for the more experienced. I learned so much in 2 days, very rewarding. Great instructor was encouraging and made learning experience feel safe. Looking forward to more days up there next year.

A hugely valuable course with a very strong empasis on safety, which taught a variety of skills with ample practice time coupled with continuous coaching from a very capable instructor. I would thoroughly recommend this organisation and would happily use them again.

I was a little trepidatious about this experience, but I have to say I'm so pleased we did it. Mark was a fantastic guide and shepherded us all well whilst allowing us to experience what this pastime had to offer.

Just the best day - from biblical downpour to flat calm and sunny in the space of 3 hours with brilliant support from our guide, Phil.
Great equipment and advice.
Totally recommend this as well worth the money.
