"Whatever he studies, the visitor to St Kilda will be haunted for the rest of his life by the place, and tantalised by the impossibility of describing it to those who have not seen it." James Fisher, naturalist, writing in 1947. Cruise to St Kilda and other islands of the Hebrides of ScotlandAs featured in the National Geographic Travel Guide... Spectacularly rugged, forbidding, yet teeming with rare species of plant and bird life, the remote archipelago of St Kilda has fascinated explorers, naturalists and adventurers, keen to discover for themselves its unique history, landscape and wildlife. Established in 2005, Kilda Cruises is based in The Isle of Harris and aims to provide a fast, comfortable day trip service with St Kilda as our main destination, and other remote outlying islands by request. World Heritage SiteSt Kilda has long been recognised as a wildlife and marine life habitat of world importance. There are a number of species unique to the islands, which are carefully monitored by conservation bodies. The awe-inspiring landscape, human history, and the sheer remoteness of St Kilda intrigue many. The islands are a UNESCO Reserve, National Nature Reserve, Ancient Monument and a World Heritage Site due to their environmental importance and scenic beauty.
