About Us
Hi I’m Lisa. Welcome to Islandeering I’m an islandeer, author and marine conservationist and passionate about sharing what I have learnt from my travels around the islands of the British Isles to help you find an adventure. I started the project 12 years ago after I had one of those light bulb moments and realised the pure magic that islands held for me. After meeting so many people on their island travels who shared my passion and told me that I must share my experiences so that others could do the same I set up Islandeering.com, where we are passionate about promoting responsible travel to our great British islands.

- Island Summary:
Hike to the highpoint, Rueval at 124 metres, for the best views of the watery landscape of this low-lying island and across The Minch to the jagged peaks of the Cuillin on Skye. Spot owls and eagles on the East Side’s lochs or head to the wild machair grasses that carpet the west coast and you might even spot a corncrake. You can also catch up with the latest films with the Screen Machine, a huge mobile cinema that seats 80, that visits Liniclate regularly.
