Scotlands 5 weeks of summer rarely fall into this high season month but if the sun does grace us it’s a fantastic time to get to grips with sailing, windsurfing and canoeing. Sometimes with weather so warm you can enjoy the water in nothing more than swimsuit and buoyancy aid!

We run multi activity weeks throughout the summer weeks as well as sailing course across the levels and windsurfing courses for all ages and abilities.

This is the only time we run our paddle sports course which introduces participants to everything you need to know about canoeing. With two days in canoes and three days in kayaks this course is second only to sailing having been the back bone of loch Insh activity holidays from the early seventies.
We take you down the Spey from relatively sedate meanderings from Kingussie to Loch Insh. The river increases in speed and difficulty through the week as we progress down to Aberlour . There’s an option of an overnight camping trip in the kayaks on the last two days which is great way to finish the week.

Team 15 has a host of new members of all ages and abilities so please feel free to come and see what its all about and get involved.

We have members from all over the Highlands and Aberdeenshire even as far as Perthshire - you don't have to come every week just as much as you can
