Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and sporran and walking by cliffs on the coast of Scarba Island on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to Argyll and Bute, Inner Hebrides, Britain, United Kingdom. The island's name is of Norse origin, possibly meaning " sharp, stony, hilly terrain " or "cormorant island. Evidence suggests that Scarba was inhabited, with ruins of crofts and a chapel on the eastern side, indicating a settled community. In 1794, 14 families lived on the island. The narrow straits surrounding Scarba, particularly the Gulf of Corryvreckan and Bealach a' choin Ghlais, feature powerful tidal currents, creating dangerous conditions for navigation. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day
