Summer Isles, Island group in Highland, Scotland
The Summer Isles consist of 30 small islands and rocky reefs located at the mouth of Loch Broom in northwest Scotland.
Frank Fraser Darling resided on Tanera Mòr during the 1930s, conducting research that influenced Scottish conservation practices.
The Summer Isles Philatelic Bureau has produced local stamps since 1970, which tourists use for mail delivery to mainland post boxes.
Access to the islands requires a 35-minute boat journey from the Coigach peninsula, with services operating from Achiltibuie and Ullapool.
The island of Mullagrach features a heather-clad cabin with rainwater collection and outdoor composting facilities, requiring bottled water for drinking.
