The terrifying history of Scotland's 'Massacre Cave' where an entire island died

Among the most beautiful and lesser known islands in the Scottish Hebrides is the Isle of Eigg.

Despite a population of around 100, the small island in the Inner Hebrides is a popular tourist destination and sees around 10,000 visitors each year.

Often called 'the emerald of the Inner Hebrides', the highlights of the Isle of Eigg are its diverse wildlife and picturesque landscapes. Whether you're walking along one of its sandy beaches or going birdwatching to spot some of the 196 species on the island, it is the perfect spot for a day trip.
