NC500 GT. - 32 – Handa Island

NC500 GT. - 32 – Handa Island
Standing high on Handa's northern cliffs we see a small smattering of its thousands of seabirds on this worn down sea-stack. Around the corner we will see puffins and close-ups of guillemots and razorbills.

Described as a stunning wildlife reserve at the north of Scotland. With dramatic cliff views and 100000 breeding seabirds including internationally important numbers of guillemots, razorbills and even puffins to watch with dramatic cliff views. The Island is 760 acres in size.

The NC 500: The Scottish 'North Coast 500' is one of the world’s most beautiful road trips. A route of just over 500 miles (516) of stunning coastal scenery, white sandy beaches, rugged mountains, remote fishing villages and hidden gems.

we were unlucky about Handa as the weather was very wet and windy when we headed that way so I only have one distant shot :-(

Ah, so I presume you did not go on the Island then Colin? A pity because it was most interesting with ancient village remains , great bird views on the magnificent cliffs and some fine views back to the mainland too. Ash well, we can't do every thing.
