Season: autumn
Tiree is credited with the highest levels of sunshine in the UK. It is warmed by the Gulf Stream and has the appearance of a raised beach. Access is straightforward, by air or by ferry and the welcome is warm. Spectacular beaches abound, all within walking distance of the airport and there are varied choices of accommoodation to suit any pocket. Tiree is a haven for maritime and migratory wildlife, including cormorants, various gulls, barnacle geese, Golden Plover and Godwits, to name but a few. Early summer is an excellent time to visit, when the machair behind the beaches explodes with colour, as the wildflowers bloom. Exquisite and highly recommended.
