    Tips

    The semi ruined castle sits on Eilean Tioram (the 'Dry Island'). Whilst the interior is closed to the public, you can walk around the exterior, however take care to avoid crossing near to high tide so you can return safely. Situated at the entrance to the Shiel River, this would have been a place of strategic importance and archeologists have found evidence of man here since the Bronze Age. The castle you see here now is thought to date to the 13th Century.

      "Dry Castle" is a ruin on a tidal island in Loch Moidart. The ruins can only be visited at low tide, entering its interior is however not possible.

        The ruins are closed to visitors, but you can get to the walls. At low tide you can walk across the sand.
