Touring the Outer Hebrides, Isle of Barra, Scotland - Part 2
This video is filmed in 4K and is part of a series touring the beautiful Outer Hebrides, Scotland in our little white motorhome.
In Part 2 - we move on to Scurrival Campsite, where we discover more beautiful beaches, the ancient Cille Bharra Church and of course the famous Barra Airport where we film the aircraft taking off and landing on the beach - a magical experience. This airport is unique and believed to be the only airport in the world where commercial scheduled flights use a tidal beach as the runway. There are normally two flights per day, weather permitting, with Loganair flying from Glasgow to Barra in Twin Otter Aircraft - this is on our bucket list!
In Part 1 we start our journey from Oban, taking the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry to Castlebay, Barra. Our first campsite is Borve Camping and Caravan site and it's from here we start to explore the Isles of Barra and Vatersay.
In Part 3 - We take a ferry to the Uists and Berneray, where we stay at two different campsites, Moorcroft Holidays and Balranald Campsite, plus a fantastic park-up next to an incredible beach on Berneray.
In Parts 4 & 5 - We explore the Isle of Harris where we stay at Pairc Niseaboist campsite, then treat ourselves to a week's stay in an apartment with stunning views overlooking Luskentyre beach, you seriously do not want to miss this, what an amazing place!
Finally, Part 6 - We move on to the Isle of Lewis before catching the ferry back to the mainland.
So if you enjoy this first video and the above is of interest to you, then please make sure you subscribe, like and hit the bell, so you don't miss our future episodes.
Thank you

Thank you, really appreciated your comment.
It’s great, love the cows wading into the sea and the airport. What weather you seem to find where ever you go 🥰 🌞
I remember many years ago my sister took me to this Island of Barra & we asked the girl in the cafe if we could hire a car to go round the Island so when we came back the girl said we didn't need to pay any thing (so that was very good of her)
Thank you for posting this. Great work.

Neither did we! Apparently the cows come to the beach and water to cool off....in the Outer Hebrides?
Just beautiful

Lucky you - either you were extremely lucky with the weather being continously good - or you picked the 15mins after the 15mins rain everynow and again ;-) Thank you!

Thank you for your comment. When we arrived on the islands the locals told us it had been one of the worst summers they have had in a while..... but then it all changed, luckily for us, and we had brilliant weather thereafter!
Absolutely awesome!!!!!! Thankyou so much for posting. Just out of interest, what camera did you use to film the videos?
