A stone bridge, a tidal island, a rebuilt 13th-century keep - sit on the shore and wait for the sun.
Highlights
- Castle interior tour
- The Clachan pub across the road
- Sunrise from the western shore
Time it for tides
Eilean Donan photographs best at high tide, when the causeway shortens and the castle appears to float. Check tide tables before you drive out - you can add ninety minutes for a lunch stop and be back on the road to Skye.
