    Road cycling

    Oronsay is a tidal island off the south coast of Colonsay. It's crossable from here at low tide but sometimes involves a paddle and isn't suitable for a road bike. The island is safe though so lock it up and walk over to explore the carved gravestones, the remains of the Priory which was used from the early 1300's to the mid 1500's and the sea birds. The island is a RSBP protected site.
