Eilean nan Caorach 1 is located two miles south east of Stornoway on the island of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. It is a small uninhabited tidal island covered in grass with a few buttercups and thrift plants. At low tide it is linked to the headland of Gob Shildinis, which is itself almost an island, by a rocky tombolo. It is composed of conglomerate.
