Harris and Lewis, or known individually as the Isle of Harris and Isle of Lewis, are two neighbouring islands in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Both islands offer breathtaking landscapes, stunning pristine beaches and rugged coastlines, making them a paradise for photographers. The two islands differ significantly, with Lewis offering more dramatic scenery and Harris providing calmer, more serene landscapes with golden beaches that seem to go on forever.
Harris and Lewis in the Outer Hebrides offers some of the most remarkable scenery and is perfect for landscape photography.
The coastline of both islands is rugged and wild, with dramatic cliffs, sea stacks, and rocky formations. It’s the perfect place to photograph the raw power of the Atlantic Ocean as it crashes against the cliffs and rocks.
Conversely, Harris is famous for its beautiful white sandy beaches, such as Luskentyre, Seilebost, Scarista, and Horgabost. The turquoise waters and picturesque dunes provide excellent opportunities for capturing beautiful seascapes and long exposures.
Lewis is home to several ancient standing stone formations, such as the famous Callanish Stones, which date back to the Neolithic era. These historical sites offer intriguing subjects for sunrise and sunset.
This island measures just 80 miles from the south of Harris to the north of Lewis. The variety of scenery is staggering and waiting to be captured on camera. From the towering cliffs and huge sea stacks of Mangersta and the Butt of Lewis to the gently sloping stunning beaches of Luskentyre, Sielibost, Horgabost and Hushinish.
