Outer Hebrides & St Kilda

Glorious sunshine and settled conditions allowed a trip ashore to experience the magnificent birdlife on the Shiants. Then it was off through the Sound of Harris to land on Taransay  before heading out to St Kilda.  With the good weather holding we headed south taking in Barra and Mingulay, before heading back across the Sea of the Hebrides.
