For twenty years we have run Clearwater Paddling, running sea-kayaking holidays throughout the Hebrides. Over this time we have gained a great insight into these beautiful islands. With this knowledge to hand we have developed Isle of Barra Surf & Coastal Adventures, a new way in which to enjoy these wonderful islands designed to appeal to families and individuals looking for some easily accessible fun and adventure.
To ensure a relaxing, fulfilling and memorable experience we deliberately keep our groups small with a maximum of eight people. We are an eco-friendly company, and take every step possible to minimise our impact on these beautiful places.
Chris Denehy
I set up Barra Surf Adventures in 2016. Prior to this I have run Clearwater Paddling since 1996, and my love of paddling has taken me to Norway, Sardinia, Oman, New Zealand, Wales, Scotland, Canada, and the Outer Hebrides. In addition to being a qualified sea kayak coach I am also a snorkel instructor, river canoe coach, mountain leader and first aider. When I am not found on the high seas I like to head to anywhere there is snow and mountains be it skiing, biking, walking or climbing.
Mark Roberts
We are delighted to have Mark for his third year with us as our lead guide and surf instructor. Lucky Mark spends the winter kayak guiding in the Abel Tasman (New Zealand) and then switching to the wilds of the Outer Hebrides for the summer. In addition to surfing and kayaking Mark has a passion for free diving, swimming every morning before breakfast and generally getting wet! When not in or on the water Mark can be found making his own wooden surfboards and kayak paddles.
Katie Denehy
Katie was brought up on Barra and left the island when 18 yrs to pursue a career in social work. We returned to Barra in 2001, to bring up our five children. Katie works as a youth and community worker and also keeps Barra Surf Adventures running smoothly by organising the bookings and keeping on top of all the emails. Her favourite means of escape is to head off in her running shoes, spend any spare time climbing mountains, sailing and sharing wine with friends!
The surf lessons were spot on, the kids loved it! 5/5
