  • Swimming at Loch Venachar expand_more
    • Meet the tour guide, who will pick you up at 10:00 a.m. (or meet directly at the lochside at 10:30 a.m.). 
    • Spend up to 2 hours at the lochside. If you would like an open-water swimming lesson, we can start with the basics or fine-tune your technique, depending on your level. We have a qualified Oceanman Open Water Swimming Coach who has an up-to-date lifeguarding qualification. If you would like to do a longer swim or a loch crossing, we can provide kayak safety support. If you would like to experience 'dipping', this can be done with time spent exploring the loch side and enjoying the scenery.   
    • Enjoy a hot drink and a biscuit, which will be provided, and there is time for photographs of the beautiful scenery. You may also have time to explore the lochside at your leisure. 
    • Return to your stay.

    (If you have a non-swimmer in your party, then a paddle board and lifejacket can be provided for the tour cost if they would also like a loch experience.)
