Glenbrittle
£1.00 – £52.50
At the head of Loch Brittle is a big beach. There is sand here at all states of the tide, and plenty of space for playing, kite flying and the like.
The sand is not white, but that apart it is a beautiful spot with views to the Island of Canna.

Portree Harbour
Is the largest town on Skye . Portree has a harbour, fringed by cliffs, with a pier designed by Thomas Telford
The current name, Port Rìgh translates as 'king's port', possibly from a visit by King James V of Scotland in 1540.
However this etymology has been contested, since James did not arrive in peaceful times.
The older name appears to have been Port Ruighe(adh), meaning "slope harbour".
Prior to the 16th century the settlement's name was Kiltaraglen ('the church of St. Talarican') from Gaelic Cill Targhlain.

Red Cuillin
The Red Hills (Na Beanntan Dearga in Gaelic) are sometimes known as the Red Cuillin.
They are mainly composed of granite which is paler than the gabbro (with a reddish tinge from some angles in some lights) and has weathered into more rounded hills with vegetation cover to summit level and long scree slopes on their flanks.
The highest point of the hills is Glamaig, one of only two Corbetts on Skye (the other being Garbh-bheinn, part of the small group of gabbro outliers surrounding Blà Bheinn).

Storr Mist
The Storr is a rocky hill on the Trotternish Peninsula.
The hill presents a steep rocky eastern face overlooking the Sound of Raasay, contrasting with gentler grassy slopes to the west.
The Storr is prime example of the Trotternish landslip, the longest such feature in Great Britain.
The area in front of the cliffs of the Storr is known as the Sanctuary. This has a number of weirdly shaped rock pinnacles, the remnants of ancient landslips.
Legend has it that Old Man of Storr was a giant who had lived in Trotternish. When he died, he was buried with his finger left sticking o ut, creating the ridges.
To get up to the Old Man, it is a constant climb. At first, the trail is wide and covered with gravel.
Your reward, if he is not covered in mist, is coming eye to eye with the Old Man of Storr.
