A Highland haven
The phrase 'Eigg, Muck, and Rùm' rings a bit like a Scottish delicacy, à la rumbledethumps, cullen skink, or neeps and tatties. Indeed, the trio are a feast for the eyes from this beach in the Highlands. They're the three Small Isles visible from Camusdarach Beach, an outpost of soft, white sand in Scotland's rural Lochaber region. Set several hours' drive from big cities like Glasgow and Edinburgh, the site nonetheless sees plenty of summer visitors seeking vast views and a dip in the crystal-clear waters. A portion of these pilgrims are drawn by film fandom: Scenes from the acclaimed movie 'Local Hero' were shot on location at Camusdarach.
