Our Roots...
North Skye Outdoors is based out of Whitewave, and is a reincarnation of ‘Whitewave; Skye’s Outdoor Centre’, which has been run for over 30 years in the same location by John and Anne. For more details head over to The Story.
Cam and Izzy, the pair behind North Skye Outdoors have put a new twist on the foundations John and Anne created, but follow the same core values in encouraging everyone to try something new in the outdoors. There is also brilliant self-catering accommodation at Whitewave in the form of rooms or wigwam pods.
