Isle of Skye
Hebridean Scottish destination
The Isle of Skye is the largest island in Scotland's Inner Hebrides, off the northwest coast.
Known for dramatic landscapes—jagged peaks, sea cliffs, and moorland—it draws tourists and hikers.
We spent a week on Skye.
Often called simply Skye: The bridge to Skye opened in 1995.
