A rare sighting (for us) of John Coe and Aquarius – the last two remaining members of the Scottish West Coast Community of killer whales. #orca #staffa @HWDT_org

A beautiful day here at The Keel Row as our pals at @StaffaTrips & @CalMacFerries set off to Staffa & Iona respectively.
Great to be back at Staffa for the first trips of the season. We had a few days of good weather over the last week as these pics show.
NB: Staffa is a ‘no-drone zone’ between 1 April and 31 July, to prevent disturbance to breeding seabirds. This footage was shot on 29/3/24.

Passing Staffa today just as this rainbow formed above the island. A big swell and waves breaking over the walkway made for a spectacular sight #Mull

How incredible is Fingal's Cave! 🤯 Situated on the uninhabited Isle of #Staffa, this cave is one of the best examples of volcanic basalt columns in the WORLD & dates back around 60 million years! 🤩

Beautiful #Hebrides. Hard going but worth the effort! Columnar basalt forms giant cathedral-like space, where the waves create wonderful chocolatey resonances. Inspired Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture. #Fingalscave #Staffa near @IsleofIona @VisitScotland
Billy was taking his @Rabbies_Travel group to Staffa with us when he got this excellent photo. Nice one Billy! – at Scotland, United Kingdom
Billy Muir, said he got a lucky shot of this bottlenose dolphin in front of Iona Abbey 📸 🐬

Urgent #repairs are ongoing to steps into #fingalscave on #staffa - please do not try to enter the cave on foot while these are taking place. The good news is you'll have more time to spend at the #puffin colony!

Tremendous day at Staffa with @StaffaTrips. The puffins were initially shy but they came in droves after we’d sat for a while. Skipper @g_tindal even arranged sunshine for the day.

#OnThisDay (or #AroundThisDay!) in AD 563, St Columba and 12 companions are said to have arrived at the island of Iona, having travelled from Ireland.
The monastery they founded remains an important and beautiful place of pilgrimage.
