Any tips for Outer Hebrides?

All the islands have different characters so soak in the flavour of each. Highlights for me were the Callanish standing stones on Lewis, the shell beaches on Harris and the Isle of Eriskay (watch the old film, Whiskey Galore, before you go there. Look for adverts for ceilidhs in shop windows or community notice boards as there are some fabulous musicians and a ceilidh night is always great fun. You may be there when one of the music festivals are on - if so, would definitely recommend going. over 5 years ago
