Island 151 - Tanera Mor, Summer Isles

Tanera Mor is one of the Summer Isles.  You can go there on a boat trip from Ullapool or from Achiltibuie.  However you only get 45 minutes or an hour on Tanera Mor, which isn't really long enough to explore it properly.  I understand that with the Summer Isles Sea Tours, which operates from Achiltibuie that you can sometimes go on a morning tour and return on a later one if there is space and more than one trip is running.  I went with this company and you get a tour around the islands to see seals and the stunning cliffs and Cathedral Cave on Tanera Beg before you land on Tanera Mor.  There was just enough time to walk through a bog to one of the geocaches on the island and to have a quick cup of tea and a piece of flapjack in the cafe. 

5 cottages on the island are rented out as holiday lets.  For more information see
