This video is split into two parts, first our trip to Barra, Vatersay and Mingulay (with no dialogue), followed by a chat about our trip and tips for visiting the islands yourself.
➤ JUMP AHEAD TO OUR BARRA TRAVEL INFO 18:07
Barra and Vatersay lie at the bottom of the chain of islands that make up the Outer Hebrides (also known as the Western Isles), in the far west of Scotland. They are small, but perfectly formed, with a little bit of everything that there is to love about the Outer Hebrides; beautiful white sand beaches, rugged hills, fresh seafood, colourful fishing boats, turquoise water, relaxed island vibes, and even a beach that doubles up as an airport!
The uninhabited island of Mingulay lies 12 miles south of Barra, a haven for wildlife including a large puffin colony between late April and early August. A day trip to Mingulay by boat from Castlebay is an incredible experience, with a few hours to explore the island on foot, followed by a boat trip around the enormous sea cliffs. Here you’ll find guillemots, shags, seals, and more wildlife, and you might even spot a climber or two on the cliffs! There is a chance to sail through a dramatic sea arch too, given the right conditions and size of your boat.
We travelled to Barra by CalMac ferry from Oban at the start of June and spent 5 nights camping on the island before continuing our road trip north to Uist, Harris, and Lewis (more Outer Hebrides films coming soon!).
