Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The twin skerries of Sgeir Gallan, Isle of Lewis This is all that shows of Sgeir Gallan, two underwater peaks of Lewisian Gneiss. The skerries lie about 600 metres, North-west of Gallan Head. The sea conditions shown are unusually benign and it's rarely possible to get this close. The skerries appear to be swept with unpredictably strong tides as, despite using the Admiralty Tidal Stream Atlas for the West Coast of Scotland to calculate slack water, a two knot tidal stream was encountered underwater. |
