A single, unassuming lane leads you to one of Scotland’s most popular viewpoints. Regular visitors insist that Neist Point, the westerly most point on the Isle of Skye, is never the same place from day to day, hour to hour. Don’t forget a camera with long-range capabilities. Whales, porpoises, dolphins, and sharks also frequently visit. Bring a jacket, a hat, and walking shoes. Be sure to take it slowly. Several steep inclines require a little extra time and attention. Use our Isle of Skye trip maker app to visit Neist Point on your trip to Isle of Skye, and learn what else travelers and our writers recommend seeing nearby.

Yet another long single track road to the car park. Concrete path down to the lighthouse live the old foghorn there too. Went on a very breezy day so be careful near the cliff edge.
