About

Made famous by Arthur Ransome's Swallows and Amazons, Peel Island lies towards the southern end of Coniston Water. In the book it is known as “Wild Cat Island”. With it's Secret Harbour and accessibility by kayak or canoe, it makes for the perfect adventure for Swallows and Amazon fans of all ages.

For younger pirates we usually set up a temporary camp and hoist a pirate flage before paddling around the island and swimming for those who want to.

Let Joint Adventures take you on your own Swallows and Amazons Adventure by Kayak or Canoe.
