Message from Tartan Viking

Spar Cave, located on the Isle of Skye in Scotland, is a stunning cavern steeped in local legend and literary history. Accessible only for a short window around low tide, this hidden gem offers visitors a glimpse into a world of calcite formations and enchanting tales. From a 9th-century princess hiding her baby to Sir Walter Scott's poetic descriptions, Spar Cave is a must-visit spot for those willing to brave the wet rocks and steep descent. Just remember to bring a torch and watch out for rising tides!
