The Oa is a remote and rugged peninsula located on the Isle of Mull, off the west coast of Scotland. It is known for its dramatic landscapes, scenic hiking trails, and abundant wildlife, including red deer, golden eagles, and seals. The Oa is also home to a variety of flora, including wildflowers, heather, and bracken. The area is steeped in history and mythology, with evidence of ancient settlements and ruins scattered throughout the peninsula. Visitors can explore the Oa's rugged terrain on foot or by bike, taking in the breathtaking views of the surrounding waters and islands.
Be prepared for windy conditions and a bit of a trek, but the view of the cliffs and bay to the south of the memorial is lovely. We didn't happen to see any eagles, but watched a nesting pair of hawks gliding on the thermals and also spotted a colony of seals.
RSPB reserve. The day we went we did not see any particularly unusual birds but there are lovely walks around the cliffs. Very windy! Quite a rough track in places down to the parking area.
Nice nature walks it is a bird reserve and you have the chance of seeing golden eagle and wild goats
What a view
Incredible.
