As this was our first time on the Outer Hebrides, we had no idea what to expect. We started off on Harris but soon found ourselves travelling right to the north of Lewis (the Butt of Lewis). Here you see gannets scouring the coastline for food. The wind is very strong and care needs to be taken when walking near the steep cliffs.
The scenes here are tremendous but there is absolutely no commerce to be seen. The little harbour is tranquil and is home to a number of small fishing boats. The Butt of Lewis is the northern-most tip of the island and is well worth a visit.
