Scottish Anchorages a new free web guide
Wednesday, January 25, 2012
www.scottishanchorages.co.uk
A new totally free to use website providing information on things to see and do when you have dropped anchor in the large majority of anchorages between Sanda Island and Loch Scavaig.
The website does not replace pilot books in that no information is provided on how to reach the comprehensive selection of anchorages covered however it does provide a huge amount of information on what’s available to see and do at each of the anchorages. From buildings of significant historical interest, the best hill to climb nearby or directions to various hotels pubs and restaurants the website lists it all.
An excellent way to pass those long winter evenings!
