None of the Isle of Arran activities list winter dates. Abseiling and ladders with Lochranza Centre CIC has dates from April, and the kayak tours and boat trips show no dates yet, so check each activity page.

On Kayak Arran's tours, under-18s must be accompanied on the water by a parent or legal guardian. On COAST Discovery Centre's boat trips, children must be at least 6 years old or weigh over 20kg, under-16s must come with an adult, and each adult can bring no more than 3 children. Abseiling and ladders doesn't state a minimum age, so check the activity page.

For the kayak tours, bring drinks, snacks, spare layers such as a fleece, spare clothing, any medicines you need, and suncream, a hat and sunglasses. For the boat trips, bring warm clothing, waterproofs if rain is expected and sun cream if needed.
