High cliffs on an remote island that are full of birds in the summer months

St. Kilda is a remote archipelago located in the North Atlantic Ocean, about 35 nautical miles west-northwest of North Uist in Scotland. It consists of several islands, with Hirta being the largest and home to the highest sea cliffs in the UK. The islands have a rich history dating back to prehistoric times, with unique architectural features and a diverse wildlife population. Despite being evacuated in 1930, St. Kilda remains a popular destination for tourists, conservation workers, and scientists during the summer months. Owned by the National Trust for Scotland, it holds UNESCO World Heritage status for its natural and cultural significance.
