Garbh Sgeir is a small, uninhabited island located off the coast of Argyllshire in Scotland. The island is known for its rugged, rocky terrain and is surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Garbh Sgeir is a popular destination for birdwatchers, as it is home to a variety of seabirds including puffins, razorbills, and guillemots.

The island is also a popular spot for fishing enthusiasts, with many visitors coming to Garbh Sgeir to try their luck at catching mackerel, pollock, and other fish species that inhabit the waters around the island. The clear waters make it an ideal spot for snorkeling and diving as well, with opportunities to explore the underwater marine life and rock formations.

Garbh Sgeir is accessible by boat from nearby towns and villages along the coast of Argyllshire, making it a relatively easy day trip for those looking to explore the natural beauty of the Scottish coastline. The island offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape and is a peaceful retreat for those seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
