The fourth instalment in this much-loved travelogue series, by Scottish Passport, invites you to explore 20 more Scottish islands at a gentler pace, encouraging you to slow down and immerse yourself in the rhythm of island life. From the rugged landscapes to the warm welcomes of our communities, the journey celebrates thoughtful and sustainable travel – by wheel, foot, or paddle.
In the Outer Hebrides, discover the unique charms of Berneray, Baleshare, Vatersay and Grimsay. These are not just breathtaking destinations, but living, breathing communities that thrive on the balance between tradition and modernity, and that extend a heartfelt welcome to all who arrive.
Wandering our Islandsprovides tips for walking, cycling, and venturing out on the water.
Alongside practical advice, you can collect rubbing stamps from each featured island and record your memories in the dedicated Wandering Jottings section – creating a keepsake of your adventures from Foula to Cumbrae, Eigg to Hoy, and the Outer Hebrides beyond.
This is slow travel at its very best: authentic, memorable, and deeply connected to the people and places you’ll encounter.
