The view north towards North Uist over the island of Benbecula in the Western Isles. Once accessible only by tidal fords from North Uist and South Uist, Benbecula is now connected to its neighbouring islands by causeways. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/ben

This is Cula Bay on the island of Benbecula in the Outer Hebrides. We were lucky enough to stay less than a mile from here for 3 days. It was the first Hebridean beach we saw and we went here several times.

"Caution Otters Crossing." The South Ford Causeway linking South Uist to Benbecula in the Western Isles. The 800m causeway was opened in 1982, replacing an 82 span single-lane concrete bridge built in 1942. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/ben

A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND

By popular demand we travel the length of South Uist and cross the South Ford causeway to the island of Benbecula. The image shows the causeway, which replace a bridge in 1982 which, in turn, replaced the ford in 1942. The island's name comes from Beinn na Faoghla, meaning "The Mountain of the Fords".

Just entered "The Heb" adventure race for a weekend of: exploring the (specifically, and ), good company, and exhaustion. 200km of varying terrain over two days. It's next September if that sounds like something you might enjoy.

Also, you get a discount for some Durty Brewing beer (brewed in the Borders) so what's not to like?

Orkney I've been to a couple of times and has generally been pleasant 👇.

My parents met on which obviously makes the Outer Hebrides the best of the islands ( though the one time I was there my tent got levelled in a storm).
