The Point of Stoer is the northern tip of the Stoer Peninsula. While the nearby Old Man of Stoer is the main attraction, the Point is a great place to drink in the scenery and watch for wildlife. Bird lovers will be in their element, with everything from fulmars and peregrines to guillemots and razorbills. Whales and dolphins can often be spied out at sea, too.
