Recently voted the "4th Best Island in the World" by National Geographic, the Isle of Skye is known for its tourism, agriculture, forestry, and fishing. It is also the second-largest island in Scotland and is a stunning wonder of biodiversity.
Visitors will come across eagles, hawks, wild geese, cranes, seabirds, mountain hares, wild cats, and so much more. The land has such a vibrant, fascinating history because it has been occupied since the Mesolithic. Other than getting a better understanding of local legends, visitors can partake in outdoor activities such as kayaking, diving, sailing, hiking, and exploring caves and sea cliffs.
