Seil is one of the 'Slate' islands where slate
was once extensively quarried. The photo on the left shows the small ferry
terminal at Cuan where the ferry takes passengers and cars the short
distance from the south of Seil to the island of Luing, shown in the photo. |

Photos above are from our evening dinner cruise
to Colonsay on Friday 11th June aboard the Caledonian MacBrayne ship 'Lord
of the Isles'. The boat leaves Oban at 5pm, with our three course meal
served on the way out to Colonsay, arriving back at 9:45pm. |

Colonsay is a small island, only eight miles in
length and has just over 100 inhabitants mostly living near the ferry
terminal and main village, Scalasaig. |
