About the Isle of Harris

Rugged beauty epitomised

The Isle of Harris is situated in the Outer Hebrides, North West of mainland Scotland. As beautiful as they are rugged and remote, the Hebridean islands are a popular tourist attraction, as well as being home to the famous Harris Tweed.

With a rich history, the Hebridean Islands have become a favourite tourist destination for those who appreciate the splendid isolation of these islands. Once ruled by Vikings, the islands have a rich history, and are scattered with prehistoric artefacts.

Arrival on the islands is principally by boat, allowing visitors to take in the stunning scenery of the islands from across the water. The beautiful beaches and unspoilt surroundings give the islands a timeless quality.
