Avoided getting stuck on a tidal island! Cramond Island, EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND
Cramond Island is a tidal island with a post-apocalyptic feel, located in a quiet Edinburgh suburb. You may be wondering what on Earth is a tidal island. Well, it's an island in the sea, which you reach by walking across the seabed when it is low tide. In the case of Cramond Island, that means there’s a chance that you could get stuff there if you don’t watch the time, and the tides. Watch an Austrian and a Bajan explore their first tidal island!

Cramond Island, Edinburgh
Since the end of the 1800's Cramond has become one of the most desirable of Edinburghs residential suburbs. With an attractive Village atmosphere: the beach and the shoreline walks and the harbour in the mouth of the river but a steady stream of aircraft passing overhead on their way into nearby Edinburgh airport seems to do little to put people off.

Cramond Island Beaches - Edinburgh, Scotland
Cramond, Edinburgh.
The Cramond area has a long history, with evidence of Mesolithic, Bronze Age and Roman activity. In modern times, it was the birthplace of the Scottish economist John Law (1671-1729). Cramond was incorporated into the City of Edinburgh by Act of Parliament in 1920.
Archaeological excaations at Cramond have uncovered evidence of habitation dating to around 8500 BC, making it, for a time, the earliest known site of human settlement in Scotland.
The inhabitants of the Mesolithic camp-site were nomadic hunter-gatherers who moved around their territories according to the season of the year. Although no bones survived the acid soil, waste pits and stakeholes that would have supported shelters or windbreaks were excavated. Numerous discarded hazelnut shells, the waste product of the inhabitants' staple food, were found in the pits and used to carbon-date the site. It is thought the site was chosen for its location near the junction of the Firth of forth and the River Almond, where the rich oyster and mussel beds proved a reliable natural resource. Many microlith stone tools manufactured at the site were found, and pre-date finds of similar style in England.
Cramond developed slowly over the centuries with Cramond Kirk being founded in 1656. After a brief period spent as an industrial village in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, by the late 19th century it became a desirable suburb of Edinburgh, which it remains to this day.

SCOTTISH D.I.Y : Cramond Island Of Punk
Episode Three takes us to beautiful Cramond Island, off the coast of Edinburgh. Where once a year, a free DIY punk festival is held, only accessible by the causeway which is covered by the tide for most of the day.
Cramond Island
Cramond Island is a tidal island about one mile (1.6 km) out to sea, which is connected to the mainland at low tide across the Drum Sands. A paved path, exposed at low water, allows easy access. This causeway runs at the foot of a row of concrete pylons on one side of the causeway, which were constructed as a submarine defence boom during the Second World War and are one of the most striking sights in the area. At high tide the path is covered by several feet of seawater which cuts the island off from the mainland. It is safe to walk along the raised causeway to the island at low tide, but only if visitors ensure that they leave enough time to return to the mainland before the water rises. The speed at which the tide comes in can easily trap the unwary. A large signpost (located at the start of the causeway) warns visitors of the danger.[3] If this warning is ignored, there can be serious accidents[4] or people may be stranded on the island until the next low tide. In 2011, a Daniel Defoe of Livingston, West Lothian and an unidentified female found themselves trapped on the island due to miscalculating the times of the tide. This story gained the attention due to the ironic parallels with Robinson Crusoe; a novel written by the 17th century writer Daniel Defoe. Coastguards recommend that the crossing is only attempted during the two hours either side of low water. The island is in the estuary of the River Almond whose mouth is near the landward end of the crossing. It is a popular recreation area.
Cramond Island is one of 43 tidal islands that can be walked to from the mainland of Great Britain and one of 17 that can be walked to from the Scottish mainland.[9]

Visiting Beautiful Ardnamurchan in the Scottish Highlands
In this video I visit the beautiful Ardnamurchan Peninsula in the Scottish Highlands. I also stop off en-route to admire the hauntingly beautiful Rannoch Moor and the majestic Buachaille Etive Mor in Glen Coe. Remote, peaceful and serene, I was completely bowled over by the beauty of the Ardnamurchan Peninsula and Sanna Bay. The trees, flora and fauna feel pristine and untouched and I can't wait to go back and discover more.
This video is part of my 'Life in Scotland' series, where I share what it's like to live and work in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Abandoned Fort Island - Inchgarvie
Read more:
INCHGARVIE, Scottish Gaelic for rough island Although now uninhabited, Inchgarvie has been inhabited throughout various periods of history. The first recorded time was in the late 15th century. Its profile and colour makes it look very much like a battleship from a distance.
(mixed media sources)
Local tradition has it that the island takes its name from the young herring, or garvies which sheltered in large shoals around its shores. Inchgarvie is a small, uninhabited island in the Firth of Forth and is dwarfed by the Forth Rail Bridge that runs along side the island., situated in the parish of Inverkeithing, county of Fife. This is a small islet in the Firth of Forth, about half a mile south Queensferry (Lothian) and double this distance from Queensferry (Fife), on the opposite shore of Linlithgow.
Ancient records show of Danish attacks on nearby islands, particularly Inchcolm as well as Fife and Lothian it may mean that it was used in some capacity by them. Whatever the case, it has had a castle, or fortification on it, from the Middle Ages to the present day, In the reign of James IV., a fort was erected here, which was latterly used as a state prison and is now in ruins. Although now uninhabited, Inchgarvie has been inhabited throughout various periods of history.
The first recorded time was in the late 15th century. The island became of renewed importance to the security of the Firth of Forth during the First and Second World Wars, during which, in combination with fortifications on Inchcolm, and gun emplacements on the mainland to the north (at North Queensferry) and to the south (at Dalmeny), it became a primary defence against air and submarine attacks on the Forth Rail Bridge and the Rosyth Dockyard. The gun emplacements were permanently manned throughout war.
To arrange a visit to Inchgarvie please contact: Edinburgh Boat Charters Ltd, Port Edgar Marina, South Queensferry.

Op een half uurtje fietsen van mijn tweede stek in Edinburgh, Cramond eiland. De video is gefilmd bij laag water. Bij hoog water zijn de 'zaagtanden' langs het verbindingspad helemaal onder water. Tijdens de tweede wereldoorlog zorgden deze tanden ervoor dat geen vijandige schepen of duikboten tussen het eiland en het vasteland door konden glippen.

Coastguards recommend that the crossing is only attempted during the two hours either side of low water. On the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institute) Queensferry website there is a list of “safe crossing times” and it states that the “times are given as a guide and may change due to weather and conditions. Times listed in WHITE are the first safe crossing time and those listed in RED are when to be back on the mainland”.
The island is in the estuary of the River Almond whose mouth is near the landward end of the crossing. It is a popular recreation area.
