Felix Mendelssohn, after visiting Fingal's Cave on the island of Staffa, was inspired to write his famous Hebrides Overture in 1832. The basalt columns that rise up from the sea are an extraordinary site, and it was the Vikings who named the island after the Old Norse name Staffa meaning pillar of stave.

The Isle of Mull - Scotland
A colourful island off the west coast of Scotland, with it's beautiful village of Tobermory and it's diverse scenery as you travel round this magical island.
Places to see in ( Isle of Mull - UK )
Places to see in ( Isle of Mull - UK )
Mull is the second largest island of the Inner Hebrides, off the west coast of Scotland in the council area of Argyll and Bute. With an area of 875.35 square kilometres (337.97 sq mi) Mull is the fourth largest Scottish island and the fourth largest island surrounding Great Britain (excluding Ireland). In the 2011 census the usual resident population of Mull was 2,800 a slight increase on the 2001 figure of 2,667; in the summer this is supplemented by many tourists. Much of the population lives in Tobermory, the only burgh on the island until 1973, and its capital. Tobermory is also home to Mull's only single malt Scotch whisky distillery: Tobermory distillery (formerly Ledaig).
It is widely believed that Mull was inhabited from shortly after the end of the last Ice Age, around 6000 BC. Bronze Age inhabitants built menhirs, brochs and a stone circle with examples of burial cairns, cists, standing stones, pottery and knife blades provide compelling evidence. Between 600 BC and AD 400, Iron Age inhabitants were building protective forts, duns and crannogs. Whether or not they were Picts is unclear.
In the 6th century, Irish migrants invaded Mull and the surrounding coast, establishing the Gaelic kingdom of Dál Riata. The kingdom was divided into a number of regions, each controlled by a kin group, of which the Cenél Loairn controlled Mull and the adjacent mainland to the east. Dál Riata was a springboard for the christianisation of the mainland; the pivotal point was AD 563, when Columba, an Irish missionary, arrived at Iona (just off the south-west point of Mull) and founded a monastery, from which to start evangelising the local population.
Mull has a coastline of 480 kilometres (300 mi) and its climate is moderated by the Gulf Stream. The island has a mountainous core; the highest peak on the island is Ben More, which reaches 966 metres (3,169 ft). Various peninsulas, which are predominantly moorland, radiate from the centre.
The Aros peninsula to the north includes the main town of Tobermory, which was a burgh until 1973 when burghs were abolished. Other settlements include Salen, Dervaig and Calgary. The Ross of Mull lies to the south west and includes the villages of Bunessan, Pennyghael, Uisken and Fionnphort. Lochbuie, Lochdon and Craignure lie to the east.
Numerous islands lie off the west coast of Mull, including Erraid, Inch Kenneth, Iona, Gometra, and Ulva. Smaller uninhabited islands include Eorsa, Little Colonsay, the Treshnish Isles and Staffa (of Fingal's Cave fame). Calve Island is an uninhabited island in Tobermory Bay. Two outlying rock lighthouses are also visible from the south west of Mull, Dubh Artach and Skerryvore. The Torran Rocks are a large shoal of reefs, islets and skerries, approximately 15 square miles (39 km2) in extent, located two miles (3 km) to the south west, between the Ross of Mull peninsula and Dubh Artach. Frank Lockwood's Island near Lochbuie is named after the brother-in-law of the 21st MacLean of Lochbuie, who was Solicitor General from 1894-5.
Ferry links to Mull from the mainland include Oban to Craignure (approx. 45 minutes), Kilchoan to Tobermory (approx. 35 minutes) and Lochaline to Fishnish (approx. 15 minutes). Advance bookings are not required for the Kilchoan or Fishnish ferries; access to those two ferry terminals on the mainland side is via single-track roads.
There are ferry links from Fionnphort on Mull to the neighbouring island of Iona and from Oskamull to Ulva. In past years there were direct sailings to Oban (calling at Drimnin, Salen, Lochaline and Craignure), and to Barra, Coll and Tiree from Tobermory. During the summer there was also a sailing to Staffa and Iona from Oban which called at Tobermory. The Isle of Mull Railway ran from Craignure to Torosay Castle, but closed in 2011.
( Isle of Mull - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Isle of Mull . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Isle of Mull - UK

Isle of Staffa to Iona the Island West of Mull
If you have been watching the other videos of our Three Isles Tour series then you will know that visiting Iona is the final island destination of the tour. If you haven't seen the earlier videos, see a list of links to them in the description below.
As we approached Iona, the skipper of our small boat advised the best place to have lunch was the restaurant close to the ferry pickup point as the hotel would have finished serving at this time. This we did and a nice lunch it was. Of course as part of my lunch I has to try a plate of those fresh local mussels mentioned by our coach driver who drove us from Craignure to Fionnphort. My wife took a notion for her favourite soup, Cullen Skink which she said was delicious.
With lunch out of the way, we set off to visit the Abbey. Things are very quiet here on Iona with just the handful of visitors like ourselves and the few friendly locals we passed on the way.
Very soon we arrived at the ruins of the Nunnery which dates to the 13th century. You will find a poster here which gives good details about its history.
Carrying on along this small path takes us back onto the main road where after a short walk we reached the Graves of the Kings and in the left hand corner sits St Oran’s Chapel.
Kings from Scotland, Ireland and France lie here and perhaps surprisingly due to the history of Iona, Viking kings as well. Even Macbeth, yes that Macbeth of Shakespeare fame. Another, although not a king is John Smith who was the leader of the Labour Party in 1992 until he died of a heart attack 1994.
Just next to the Graves of the Kings is where you will buy the tickets to the Abbey. There is so much to see in both the Abbey and the museum that you will need to keep moving along, if you don't want to miss your ferry.
The museum is a must, as this is where so many interesting items have been placed including a replica of the Book of Kells.
For us it was time to head back and catch the ferry for the short crossing back to Fionnphort. As with the time on Staffa flying by, the same applies here on Iona. There are hotels in Iona as there are in Fionnphort so the next time we visit this area we will be staying for a longer spell.
The crossing time is only around 20 minutes but if the weather is clear and you look to the south, you will be able to pick out the easily recognised Paps of Jura.
Embarking from the ferry it's only a short walk to our coaches waiting in the car park. Now we will be heading back to catch the Craignure to Oban ferry. Which will be the final part of this wonderful trip.
Exploring Mull, Staffa & Iona
After leaving Glasgow, we headed to Mull via Oban, where we ate some seafood and checked out the distillery. The Isle of Mull is known as the 'Highlands in miniature' and has an incredible craggy coastline, deep sea lochs and beautiful sand beaches.
The islands of Staffa and Iona make for a fantastic day trip from Mull - we spent an hour surrounded by puffins on Staffa, and climbed a hill for great views on Iona.
We hiked to the Carsaig Arches where we saw feral goats, waterfalls and sea stacks, and ended up in the capital of Mull, Tobermory - where we ate a fish supper.

Isle of Iona
isleofmullcottages.com/isle-of-mull-islands.html#iona
Iona is located just off the Isle of Mull's south west tip. Most people staying on Mull make the journey over to Iona at some point during their stay and this little video shows you a little of what there is to see.
The Isle of Iona plays an important role in the history of christianity. Iona Abbey can be visited and tickets are bought on the island.
There are some amazing beaches on Iona and we look at a few of these, as well as Dun I the island's highest point.
We hope this video is useful for anyone interested in things to do on Iona.

SCOTLAND: Staffa Island and the Isle of Iona
On our last day in Scotland, we finished with a bang! We took a tour with Staffa Tours to go see Staffa Island, with Fingal's cave and the puffins, and the sacred Isle of Iona, where Christianity was introduced to the early Scots and much of Europe. We saw and learned so much, and this was my favorite day of the whole trip!

Scotland's SECRET Island Escape / Isle of Iona.
Iona is a small island in the Inner Hebrides off the Ross of Mull on the western coast of Scotland. It is mainly known for Iona Abbey, though there are other buildings on the island.
Iona is thought to be the first Christian site in Scotland. As such, this tiny island (1 mile wide, 3.5 miles long), now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland.
The tiny island of Iona sits off the west coast of the Isle of Mull in the historic Highlands of Scotland. This small isle, just three miles long by one mile wide, had a huge influence on the establishment of Christianity in Scotland, England and throughout mainland Europe.
Travel to Iona is by two ferries to : mainland to the Isle of Mull (via Oban/Craignure, or Lochaline/Fishnish or Kilchoan/Tobermory) and then from Fionnphort to Iona. The ferry point for Iona is at Fionnphort on the Isle of Mull and is a 4 minute ride across the Sound of Iona.
