Incredible uninhabited wildlife island

Boreray is an uninhabited island in the St Kilda archipelago in the North Atlantic and probably the most epic sight we've even seen in our time in this amazing country. Day trips to St Kilda will more often than not circle the island on your route home and this is the only way you'll be able to get there.

The cliffs of Boreray are the home to 45,000 pairs of seabirds, and there are two sea stacks, vertical pillars of rock, off the coast of the island. There are also ruins of houses that date back as far as the Iron Age, giving insight into what life must have been like for those early inhabitants.
