Eilean nan Each
Eilean nan Each — 'Horse Island' — is a small uninhabited island in the Summer Isles, sitting off the wild northwest coast of Scotland where you anchor off and take in the rugged scenery. The place feels genuinely remote, with archaeological traces of Bronze Age settlement adding a layer of history to what looks, at first glance, like pure wilderness. It's a rewarding stop if you're exploring the Summer Isles chain and want somewhere with almost no footprint of the modern world.
