Goodness knows how many people go to Skye without being aware that its coastal scenery in the area further West than Dunvegan Castle is among the finest in the UK. I am very much a public transport person these days but I have to admit that I could not advocate coming to this area without a car.
An Ordnance Survey map will show you clearly enough the nearest car access to the cliffs leading to Waterstein Head and all around here are high and scenic cliffs.
Skye is more than just mountains, magnificent as they are but it was only by reading the mountain-based book, 'The Magic of Skye', by that wonderful black and white photographer of the mountains, W. A. Poucher, that I discovered this part.
