The Majestic Line has been hosting Scottish cruising holidays on the waters off the West Coast for over 20 years. Most of our cruises depart from Oban, gateway to the Highlands and the Islands of the Outer and Inner Hebrides – sailing in these waters is the best way to explore the islands and the beautiful coastline of Scotland. Our five small cruise ships are beautiful floating hotels and have been designed to access remote and sheltered anchorages that larger boats find inaccessible. Sailing from April to October, we make the most of the longer summer days with opportunities for walking ashore and wildlife spotting or just relaxing onboard.
