HEBSEASWIMMER - A HEBRIDEAN SWIM ADVENTURER

Fantastic walk down to Sialabhig Mor with Donna & Ciara. A beautiful beach in the middle of nowhere. Had to have a wee swim too. Duckman was saying a more than tropical 17.4 degrees on average.

Hi Colin - I enjoyed the Sialabhig post. I hope to go there this week. Is it best to go from Griais (either round the cliffs or over Druim Mor) or straight down the burn from the long lay-by on the B895?

Hi David. Thanks for the comment. The quickest way to get to Sialabhig is to park in the short layby, just after leaving Gress on the right hand side. Go through the gate and follow the old peat road, then head towards another gate and follow the fence down. It'd be easier to send you a route via fb messenger tbh, if you want to add me as a friend on there...

    Thanks for visiting my blog!

    I've been a swimmer all my life and over the last several years I've done many challenging open water swims for charity all around our Islands which include the Sound of Barra & the Sound of Harris and both the Little & the Big Minch Channels to name a few.

    Having a real passion for open water swimming, I spend a lot of my spare time looking for and discovering amazing new swim spots around the Islands.
     
    I set up The Hebridean Sea Swimmers group in 2011 for all swimmers that live in or visit The Hebrides and it now has over 1000 members. I regularly meet up with visiting swimmers as I love to freely show off our Islands stunning swim locations.

    SwimCamping and SwimHiking are my new adventures and having such an amazing playground on my doorstep is fantastic, double bagging my kit into the Lomo waterproof rucksack and swimming to an island for an overnight stay or longer is just the best.

    Feel free to get in touch via the contact forms at the top of the page.​
