 The Hebrides are located off the west coast of Scotland. There are two main groups Inner and Outer. Lewis and Harris make up the largest island. Most of Harris is mountainous and Lewis is comparatively flat.

Stornaway is a burgh on the Isle of Lewis. It is an important port and the major town of the Outer Hebrides. The harbour has a small fishing fleet and a small marina. A lighthouse is at the mouth of the harbour. A ferry sails from the harbour to Ullapool in the Highlands, every day. Seals are always found in the harbour.

The Isle of North Uist has stunning beaches and freshwater locks. It has a nature reserve on the west coast run by the RSPB. Lochmaddy is the main town and looks out to Monarch islands where thousands of grey seal pups are born every year. With the highest sea cliffs in Britain, St.Kilda is the most important sea breeding station in north west Europe. This is a world heritage sit owned by the National Trust for Scotland.

Harris Tweed is a cloth that has been hand woven by the islanders in their homes using wool that has been dyed and spun in the Outer Hebrides. There are several Harris Tweed mills on the islands.
