Explore Jura - Go on a Whirlpool Scotland Boat Trip
The Corryvreckan Whirlpool lies off the west coast of Scotland in-between the islands of Jura and Scarba, and can be reached by boat, car or sea plane.
Created by the sea flow sucking the water from the Clyde Estuary as it passes the Mull of Kintyre, the Whirlpool is a natural wonder.
There are a variety of boats offering trips to the Whirlpool - visitors may choose from a leisurely cruise taking in some of Scotland's spectacular scenery and wildlife, or a high speed RIB trip across the Firth of Lorn, which is home to porpoise, dolphins and seals.
However you choose to explore the Isle of Jura, view the Corryvreckan Whirlpool or the surrounding West Scotland countryside, it is sure to be a memorable experience.
