St Kilda - World Heritage Site

The St Kilda group of islands looms from the Atlantic fifty miles west of Harris. As the remotest part of the British Isles they are a world apart from our everyday lives and one of the most important seabird colonies in Europe. The spectacular cliffs and sea stacs are a dream destination for ornithologists with puffin, fulmar, guillemot and of course gannets - the islands have the largest population in the world.

The extraordinary human history of St Kilda is carefully preserved in the Village with its neat little street of cottages. These are available for the visitor to explore as well as the Church, School and Feather Store. There is also a museum with a permanent exhibition of St Kildan life up to the poignant evacuation in 1930. From far longer ago, there are a number of interesting archaeological sites dotted around the islands which give an insight to a way of life in this incredibly inhospitable environment.
