Grand Tours of the Scottish Islands

In this first episode, Paul is travelling to the beautiful islands of Eriskay, Barra and Vatersay which are famed for their white sandy beaches and stunning scenery.

For this grand tour Paul is exploring the Isle of Mull and its satellite islands, to discover why they have become boltholes from the hustle and bustle of the modern world.

In this episode Paul is visiting two Hebridean islands which are very different; Gigha and Jura.

To begin this grand tour, Paul is travelling on an icon of the west coast; an original steam powered puffer, and is exploring a string of islands just off the west coast near Oban.

There are seventy islands in the Orkney archipelago but just how much of a challenge is it to keep all these islands connected?

This final episode sees Paul visiting two of the most wind swept islands on our stormy coast, the "Atlantic Twins" of Coll and Tiree.
