Eigg to Inverie

Pippa Shaw

Another slightly spicy sail with some pretty choppy sea and a few unexpected gusts, but definitely improved by multiple dolphin sightings, and dramatically improved by the pos that came to play off our bow for 20ish mins - so close we could almost touch them and a big group of flirts showing off their bellies. And just when we thought we'd seen enough wildlife, a minkie whale appeared! Then later, we got two more 🤯 What an incredible moment! We also got to enjoy plenty of sea birds, including a big black one with beautiful white markings on the wings that we couldn't identify and what appeared to be hundreds of fulmars (we think) floating by, plus plenty of others - too many to name! Anchor down at Inverie, which apparently hosts the most remote pub on the mainland - I'm sure we'll be popping in for a pint and some Cullen Skink tomorrow 😁 Apparently this is an amazing place for wildlife, so we'll be keeping our eyes peeled for otters and golden eagles during our stay 🦅🦦🐬
