As well as the many historic sites on the island, there is a great abundance of wildlife to see, and numerous stunning beaches to explore.


The island is a haven of great wildlife. For the birdwatcher there is an abundance of seabirds to spot - and if you're lucky perhaps even a Golden Eagle! Lewis is also an excellent location for some peaceful fishing - particularly loch trout fishing.

There is no shortage of stunning scenery around the island - not least a plentiful supply of beautiful, deserted beaches. You might not always get a tan, but you will always get an invigorating walk on some of the country's most remote beaches.
