Islay, Scotland

Fire up your spirit of discovery on 'Whisky Island'. Islay, the 'Queen of the Hebrides', is the southernmost island of the Inner Hebrides, with rugged uplands and coastline. The island is the proud home of world-famous peaty single malts - but that's far from the only reason to visit. Islay is a wildlife haven, home to over 200 species of birds - including oystercatchers, gannets, and golden eagles. From its sandy beaches, you can sometimes spot dolphins and basking sharks. Port Ellen is the gateway to three of the island's nine distilleries. Of course, no trip to Islay is complete without a 'wee dram' from one of these famous and historic whisky producers, including Laphroaig and Ardbeg. ...

At only seven miles long, the only way to get around Gigha is on foot or by hiring a bike. Visit the woodland gardens of Achamore House and admire the colorful rhododendrons.

Abandoned by its resident population a century ago, Mingulay is home to some of the largest bird colonies in the Hebrides. Puffins, guillemots, fulmars, kittiwakes, and more make their nests across the island, including on the towering Carnan Cliffs, a protected breeding area. If conditions allow, we'll take our small expedition boats around the island on the lookout for some of these magnificent birds. ...
