Pico Hire

Overview

Enjoy a classic dinghy sailing experience with self-led Pico sailing boat hire on Loch Ken from Galloway Activity Centre. The Pico is a lightweight, responsive sailing dinghy that offers a fun and accessible way to get out on the water, ideal for confident beginners as well as more experienced sailors looking for an enjoyable, hands-on sail.
With direct access to the sheltered waters of the loch, you can launch from the shoreline and set off to explore at your own pace. Whether you're practising your tacking, enjoying a relaxed sail along the coastline, or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings of the Galloway Hills, the Pico provides a lively and engaging way to experience Loch Ken.
Before heading out, you'll receive a safety briefing and an introduction to the boat. As a self-led hire activity, participants are expected to be competent in rigging and sailing the Pico independently, ensuring a safe and enjoyable time on the water.
Pico sailing boat hire is a fantastic option for those looking to build confidence on the water or simply enjoy a fun and flexible sailing session in one of Scotland's most scenic inland sailing locations.
