South Uist
South Uist is a relatively large island lying between Barra and Benbecula in the Outer Hebrides.
The east side of South Uist is mountainous, the highest point being 2034ft Beinn Mhor. The west is characterised by some of the best beaches anywhere - a long line of sandy stretches backed by dunes and flower-filled machair. The island's main settlement, and port, is at Lochboisdale on the east coast.
