Fingal's Cave and Puffins

Our boat trip to Staffa to see the magical Fingal’s Cave was enhanced by the unexpected delight of puffins flying onto one of the island’s cliff tops. Perhaps the tour boat’s puffin logo should have been a clue? After an uneventful sail across from Fionnphort, on landing, we scurried along the basalt column path to the entrance to Fingal’s Cave where we took in the beauty of the chasm. But then, after climbing to the top of the cliff, we were captivated by the comedic antics of hundreds of puffins, posing for photos and chattering among themselves. We must return!
