Canna is the westernmost island in the Small Isles archipelago and is believed to have been inhabited since 5000BC.
Home to over 20,000 breeding birds including fulmars, kittiwakes, razorbills, gannets, great skuas, sea and golden eagles.
Canna is also on the Hebridean Whale Trail so in the nearby waters there’s the chance to spot orcas, basking sharks, minke whales, dolphins, porpoise and seals.
With around 30 minutes to view the bird colonies on the island stacks and about 1 hour onshore to explore the island it’ll be a day to remember.
