From Lewis to Barra and beyond, the Outer Hebrides is full of beauty and brimming with possibilities to capture the imagination and discover ancient history. Witness the incredible wildlife of the islands and seek out amazing archaeological treasures such as the Calanais Standing Stones. With its huge sea cliffs and stacks, St Kilda, a UNESCO dual World Heritage site is one of Europe's most vital seabird breeding stations while RSPB's Balranald Nature Reserve on North Uist is a wildlife-rich grassland delight.
You can enjoy outdoor activities here too with world-class fishing and surfing, kayaking and abseiling, or absorb some of the magical peace and quiet with a cycle around some of the island roads and a walk along beautiful white sand beaches. Revel in the splendour of the natural surroundings and taste some of the amazing fresh produce of the islands. An island hopping trip in the Outer Hebrides will provide unrivalled magical memories.
