An Acarsaid a Tuath

An Acarsaid a Tuath — meaning North Harbour — is an anchorage off the small island of Scalpay in the Outer Hebrides, where you drop the hook in sheltered, characterful Scottish island waters. The surrounding landscape is rugged Harris scenery at its finest, and if you head ashore, the Scalpay Circular trail gives you a rewarding 6-mile loop with impressive elevation and views across the Minch.
