An archipelago accessible only by sea, seabirds have claimed St Kilda as their own. The isolation of life on St Kilda proved too much for the remaining islanders who left in the 1930's, but its very remoteness provides life-affirming experiences that cannot easily be found elsewhere.

Steep cliffs dominate the landscape. With mists, silver seas and brooding cliffs, St Kilda is an experience, a chance to immerse yourself in natural beauty. A place to sit and wonder. To dream. To explore. To regain a feeling of self worth purely because you have made the effort to journey across the seas. And to feel, ulitimately, an overwhelming sense of wonder simply because places like St Kilda still exist in the world.

"..the future observer of St Kilda will be haunted the rest of his life by the place, and tantalised by the impossibility of describing it, to those who have not seen it" James Fisher, a naturalist, 1947.

St Kilda was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1986 in recognition of its Natural Heritage; for its exceptional natural beauty and for the significant natural habitats that it supports.
