Loch Eriboll On Visit To North Coast Of Highlands Of Scotland

Tour Scotland travel video, with Scottish music, of Loch Eriboll, Scottish Gaelic: Loch Euraboil, a sea loch on visit to the North coast of the Scottish Highlands. The loch has long been used as a safe anchor from the stormy seas off of Cape Wrath and the Pentland Firth. On the small peninsula jutting out into the loch, there are ruins of a small scale lime industry that developed there in the 19th century. In 1945, thirty three German U-boats surrendered in the deep loch, ending the Battle of the Atlantic. Eilean Choraidh, the largest island in the loch, was used as target practice for aerial bombing.
