| Muck
Early
morning views from the island can be stunning - these are common
seals resting
on a reef at Galanach
Bay with Eigg and the mainland behind.
 |
Seen
from the top of the Sgurr of Eigg, Muck shows itself as a
small island, but however manages to pack san awful lot of
interesting things into such a small area.
|
The
main village is Port Mhor, seen here with the boat the "Wave"
which used to bring goods and people off the ferry before
the new pier was built in 2004.
|
|
|
The
island itself is a thriving farming community, despite the
obvious difficulties with getting produce and livestock to
market.
|
|
Muck
has always been well known for the warmer than average for
the islands. Crops grow here earlier than elsewhere - arable
cultivation is quite unusual in the Hebrides
|
|
The
owner of the island, Lawrence MacEwan, lives at Gallanach
Bay on the north west of the island. This is the nicest anchorage,
but is very exposed to winds and swell so cannot be used on
every visit.
|
|
|
The
bay is surrounded by beautiful green fields leading up to
the summit of Beinn Airein (137metres) from which wonderful
views of the islands are to be had
|
You
can just make out Guideliner anchored in the bay below.
|
|
|
Surrounding
the bay are several lovely cottages, some lived in all year
and some for rent.
|
|
Perhaps
the most unusual is the turf roofed cottage, which is some
half a mile from Gallanach. It stands alone, above a wonderful
shell and rock bay in perfect seclusion, and is available
for short term rent for those who can make do with some very
basic but fabulous accommodation. |
|
|
You
can get lovely home cooked food, (I especially recommend the
cream cakes) at the cafe at Port Mhor, which is also the Community
centre, but you may have to join the queue!
|
However
the island has its more rugged side - here you can see the
cliffs of Rubh Leam na Laraich on the south of Muck. |
|
But one
things seems to be so noticeable on the island.
On Muck the weather can be so much kinder than on the islands around.
