Sea Kayaking Muckle Roe Circumnavigation Aug 2022

Muckle Roe is one of Shetland's Sea Kayaking gem's with it's distinct red granite rock, in fact the name Muckle Roe translates into 'Big Red Island'
We set off from Muckle Roe Marina near the road bridge to the island just south of Busta.
A dark grey day with heavy rain and moderate wind forecast for the entire day.
Out through Roe sound and along the low South Eastern shore the red granite rock began to show its full colour.
Working our way up the exposed West coast things quickly became more interesting with a multitude of reefs, gullies, sea caves and tunnels driven into the rock by the unhindered powerful Atlantic swell. The are red cliffs are very dramatic and the insides of there caves take on an otherworldly appearance with weird shapes worn into the polished red coloured rock.
Highlights along the way included the famous 'Hole of Hallier' and various subterranean tunnels cut right through the headlands.
Various natural arches, deep caves, cut throughs and gullies were thoroughly explored and enjoyed by all, made all the more dramatic with the torrential driving rain and dark skies throughout the day.
Lunch was enjoyed in North Ham accessed through a small archway from the Southern approach.
Ironically more camera issues prevented further footage of there remaining part of the day but thankfully I had already captured the best parts of the trip being in close, once around the Northern point we travelled South out in the middle of Roe Sound before returning back to our launch point.
A fabulous Sea Kayaking trip and not one to be missed when visiting Shetland.
