Interesting facts about this location
Crowlin Islands
The Crowlin Islands (Scottish Gaelic: Na h-Eileanan Cròlainneach) are a group of uninhabited islands in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland. They lie between Skye and the Applecross peninsula on the mainland. The individual islands are: Eilean Mòr (big island) Eilean Meadhonach (middle island) Eilean Beag (little island) Although cave excavations on Eilean Mòr have shown evidence of human settlement in Mesolithic times 8,000 years ago, the islands have been uninhabited since about 1920.

Eilean Mòr, Crowlin Islands
Eilean Mòr is the largest of the Crowlin Islands in the Inner Sound off the Isle of Skye, Scotland. Eilean Mòr is situated at the mouth of Loch Carron, off the south coast of Applecross in Wester Ross. It is connected to the adjacent Eilean Meadhonach at low tide. Excavations on Eilean Mòr have shown evidence of human settlement in Mesolithic times 8,000 years ago. Ruined cottages can be seen in the north-east corner, near Camas na h-Annait.

Eilean Meadhonach
Eilean Meadhonach is the second largest of the Crowlin Islands, located in the Inner Sound off the island of Skye, Scotland. It is situated immediately to the west of Eilean Mòr, and to the north is Eilean Beag, both of which it is connected to at low tide. The total area is 77 hectares although Haswell-Smith also provides a figure of 50 hectares for the area. The larger figure may include Eilean Beag and the lower one Eilean Meadhonach alone at high tide.

Bealach na Bà
Bealach na Bà is a historic pass through the mountains of the Applecross peninsula, in Wester Ross in the Scottish Highlands—and the name of a famous twisting, single-track mountain road through the pass and mountains. The road is one of few in the Scottish Highlands that is engineered similarly to roads through the great mountain passes in the Alps, with very tight hairpin bends that switch back and forth up the hillside and gradients that approach 20%.

Inner Sound, Scotland
The Inner Sound is a strait separating the Inner Hebridean islands of Skye, Raasay and South Rona from the Applecross peninsula on the Scottish mainland. Its Gaelic name, An Lighe Rathairseach, should not be confused with An Linne Rathairseach, its western neighbour. Together, they can be considered as southeastern arms of the Little Minch. The Inner Sound is the location of BUTEC, a Royal Navy submarine sensor and emissions range.
