New 2024 Cruise: Creative Writing

Our Scottish Island cruises are perfect for finding further inspiration for your creative writing with a knowledgeable skipper to guide you and a dedicated chef to serve you delicious meals.

Just one departure date in 2024: 19th September for six nights onboard our small ship Seahorse II.

Daily workshops will give you the opportunity to try different approaches to writing and will be timed to fit in with each day’s activities. No previous experience is needed, just a willingness to listen, write and share ideas.

Scottish Small Ship Cruises

Gemini Explorer visiting the Inner and Outer Hebrides. Many thanks to Captain Dougie for the pictures.

Our small ships are powerful enough to cruise the many spectacular islands and lochs of the Inner Hebrides and Outer Hebrides, yet small enough to anchor in remote and hauntingly beautiful places that the larger passenger ships are unable to visit.
