View from the Cliffs of Staffin

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful view from the Cliffs of Staffin. Following the little path to Columba 1400. Once you are up, leave the path to the left and just go on the top. The ledges are easy to climb. Be aware of high winds though.

Beautiful view from the cliffs at Staffin. You can get high by following the path to Columba 1400 from the last car park (after Corran Beach Parking). Once at the top, you simply go left into the terrain and up the wall. It is quite easy to climb. Nevertheless, beware, it blows a very strong wind.

Staffin Beach Dinosaur Footprints

Highlight • Beach

The easy to spot footprints are clustered together at the right of the path down from the first car park, within 20yds. Go a low tide and wear boots as the seaweed is slippy!

Staffin Sea Cave

Highlight • Viewpoint

Impressive cave carved out by the sea. Unimpressive interior which has become the final resting place of a wheel axel, oven and plenty of plastic that has been dumped in the sea and then has washed into the cave

Maybe it was a bit windy. And maybe I felt a drop or two of rain...
