Scotland’s west coast captivates visitors with its spectacular fjord landscape. Long, deeply carved sea lochs wind their way into the majestic Highlands, creating an exceptional sailing destination. Anchoring, however, can be challenging, as the shores are often steep and rocky, with only a few sheltered coves offering protection from winds funneled along the fjords.

After several rainy days in Mallaig, a high-pressure system finally brings calm and settled weather. For two days, we explore the magnificent fjords of Loch Nevis and Loch Hourn. Our journey takes us nearly 10 nautical miles inland, surrounded by dramatic mountain slopes rising up to 800 meters above the water. Along the way, we discover remote anchorages highlighted in nautical cruising guides—hidden gems set amidst breathtaking scenery of towering peaks, pristine waters, and untouched wilderness.
