Sail to the uninhabited island of Staffa in the Inner Hebrides, near Iona, and walk into the fascinating Fingal’s Cave. This crazy rock formation looms 227 ft (69 metres) tall over the ocean and is a geometric sea cave that looks like it's been crafted by human hand rather than at of mother nature. It has been formed completely from hexagonal columns of basalt, shaped in neat six-sided pillars that make up its interior walls. Fingal’s Cave was created some 60 million years ago by the very same ancient lava flow that created the Giant’s Causeway in Ireland, which is directly across the sea. As both are made of the same basalt columns, legend holds that they were the end pieces of a huge road built by the Irish giant Fionn mac Cumhaill, so he could make it to Scotland where he was to duel with Fingal, his gigantic rival. The naturally formed arched roof creates an echo chamber the amplifies the sound of the ocean waves smashing against the rock in a melodic way. These ocean harmonies are often likened to the sounds heard resonating throughout a cathedral. It must be observed (and heard!) in-person to appreciate the uniqueness of this experience! Staffa is home to one of the Hebrides largest puffin colonies, who congregate on the cliffs and spend their days diving into the water then return with a beak full of fish. The best time to see the puffins is during the breeding season between the start of May and start of August when the birds have their distinctive colourful beaks.Other seabirds that either nest or feed from the island include gannets, guillemots, razorbills, great northern divers, fulmars and great skuas.

SOCIAL MEDIA http://www.instagram.com/sailingrubyrose http://www.facebook.com/sailingrubyrose https://www.tiktok.com/@sailingrubyrose MUSIC Epidemic Sound Artlist Hey there! We're Nick and Terysa and we’ve become completely obsessed with the idea of sailing around the world and sharing our experiences and information through our sailing lifestyle videos with others. We met travelling around India, and quickly agreed that rather than “settling down” and doing what most normal people do, we wanted to travel and have adventures! We moved onto our 38 foot monohull in 2014, sailed across the Atlantic twice, cruised the Caribbean, Bahamas and Europe, before buying a brand new 45 ft catamaran! We hope you enjoy what we do.

Even with the very best of planning you may be surprised by what you encounter when sailing across the vast ocean. Join us aboard our Lagoon 42 for our post hurricane season sail from Curaçao onward towards the U.S. Virgin Islands as we run into some nasty storms and unexpected surprises from US Border Patrol. Experience life on the wind, join us for a sail 👉🏽 https://cruisenautic.com Do you love travel, does your urge for adventure leave you longing to break free to live the boat life? In 2017 we decided we would do just that, so we sold everything we owned and started out for a new life at sea. We are two USCG 100 Ton Captains who sailed our Lagoon 42 Catamaran out of France and over the last 5+ years we have crossed the Atlantic and completed several circumnavigations of the Caribbean. Our winter base is the Virgin Islands where we offer a variety of sailing and dive experiences aboard CruiseNautic. Music: Diabuleria by KaleidoSea - Artlist Licensed
