The Fairy Pools are one of the most popular places to visit on the Isle of Skye and are located just behind the Cuillin mountains. Visitors often swim in the pools in the summer and they offer amazing photo opportunities.

The Old Man of Storr is an iconic rockface located just north of the Islands capital of Portree. You may park your vehicle and it is just a short walk to the summit. Once there you can bask in amazing views of the Cuillin Mountains in the distance looking across to the sound of Raasay.

The Quiraing

The Quiraing is one of the most popular places to visit on the Island thanks to spectacular views looking across the Trotternish peninsula. The location has been popular with photographers and film makers alike with the landscape appearing in such films as Robert the Bruce and even Transformers!
