Staffin - again
Staffin is a small town located in the northeast of the Isle of Skye in Scotland. It sits on the coast of the Sea of the Hebrides and is famous for its beautiful landscapes, including spectacular views of the ocean and the mountains.
Beach Staffin is one of my favorite places in Scotland. This time we encountered completely windless weather, which, of course, as in Scotland, doesn't happen often. The sun gently warmed the golden sand, and the calm waves of the Sea of the Hebrides created perfect conditions for walks along the coast. Additionally, the low tide made it easier to find a dinosaur footprint imprinted in the rock. These prehistoric prints, dated to the Jurassic period, are a real attraction for history and geology enthusiasts.
