On the shore of Loch Scavaig on the Strathaird Peninsula, the village of Elgol’s scenic attractions are a destination for visitors travelling by boat to see Loch Coruisk and the Small Isles. The cave where Prince Charlie was said to have waited for a boat to the mainland in 1746 is a short walk from the village. The view of the mountain ridge across the Loch is one of the most spectacular in Scotland.
