Pabaigh Lagoon SwimCamp - 12.07.2025

Roasting hot sunshine made for weather I've never had before on a SwimCamp outing. I've been keen to take Kellie to the lagoon on Pabaigh Mhor for some time now and this weekend gave us an opportunity to do so. Going from Reef beach via the Siaram Mhor sand bar (we got out for a look around before carrying on across) to Pabaigh. We plonked Kellie's kayak in a safe place way above the high tide mark, then hiked across to the lagoon, where we set camp, checked out the cave and arch, had dinner, swam in the lagoon, watched the (slightly blocked by Pabaigh Beag) sunset, campfire and drinks. It's a beautiful place and I'm sure we'll be back there many more times. Not all the photos and videos are in the right order 😊

Can you see the photos marking out a Happy 25th birthday to my son James?

    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.​
