Sula Sgeir is a small, uninhabited Scottish island in the North Atlantic, 18km west of Rona. One of the most remote islands of the British Isles, it lies more than 40mi north of Lewis and is best known for its population of gannets. A ruined stone bothy called Taigh Beannaichte (Blessed House) can be found on the east headland Sgeir an Teampaill. A small automated lighthouse on the south end at Sròn na Lice is regularly damaged by the huge waves which break over the island during rough North Atlantic storms. Despite this, the island has diverse flora.
