Lunga is the largest of the Treshnish Isles off the west coast of Scotland. Visit in June or July and the Island is teaming with bird life including guillemot, razorbill, puffin, kittiwake,fulmar, shag and skua.
The puffins are very tame and you can get quite close to them making it a photographers paradise! Do take care not to get too close and damage the nests though.
There are a number of companies selling boat trips including: www.turusmara.com/

Cycle to Moon Cave and take your bathers because the trip includes a mud bath which is great fun.
Opposite Moon Hill, directions well publicised around Yanshou
