Hebrides

The Hebrides are a group of islands off the west coast of Scotland, divided into the Inner Hebrides and Outer Hebrides. They are known for their rugged landscapes, rich Gaelic culture, and historical significance. The islands feature diverse environments, from sandy beaches and rocky cliffs to lush hills. Historically, they have been important for fishing, crofting (small-scale farming), and maritime activities. Today, the Hebrides are popular for tourism, outdoor pursuits, and experiencing natural beauty and Gaelic heritage. They represent a unique part of Scotland’s cultural and geographical landscape.
