After a bumpy ride out to the Garvellachs, and all landings thwarted, it was nice to finally get ashore. From the bay to NE, our easiest landing of 3 today. Tall heather thrash in places. | Minto | 16/06/2022 |

With group of island-baggers on the Farsain out of Craobh Haven | AndrewFinnimore | 14/05/2018 |
9th tump of 12 on the 1st of my three boat trips organised with Farsain Cruises, having visited Eileach an Naoimh, A'Chuli, Garbh Eileach and Don Chonnuil, we headed for Eilean Dubh Beag but decision was to do Eilean Dubh Mor first to allow Farsain to scout out possible landings on Eilean Dubh Beag. Landing in deeper water just Nw of the bay I profiled around the shingle beach to climb to Dun A' Ghaill before descending Wsw then South around a knoll to climb via deer tracks and a heather thrash to the summit. I recorded 52m @ NM . NM 69577 10470. I headed E then Ene then Ne to get back to the boat. We then headed off to round Eilean Dubh Beag, our next destination... | Dazingdale | 14/05/2018 |
