  • W Lords of the Sea Kingdom
    Lords of the Sea Kingdom An Adventure Through the Western Isles August 16 - 26, 2012 ell over a thousand years ago the Vikings sailed across the North Sea, first to raid and then to settle in the Hebrides and Western Scotland.W They mingled with the native Gaelic people and brought a special gift – their mastery of the sea and their fast, flexible ships. Before long, a race of strong and independent leaders was born. The highest title, the Overlord, was claimed by the Norse King. Somerled, the earliest ancestor of Clan Donald, rebelled to lead a great revival of Gaeldom. The Norse were driven out of Western Scotland and the Isles, and Somerled crowned himself “King of the Isles.” Join Discover Europe on this magical and historical journey through the Western Isles of Scotland as we explore both the landscape and culture of this powerful clan. We’ll arrive in Glasgow, pausing just long enough to shake the jet lag and enjoy an introduction to this vibrant modern city. The real adventure begins as we turn northwest to one of the earliest headquarters of the Sea Kingdom, the Isle of Islay. Today the island is perhaps best known for its malt whisky distilleries, but long ago the leaders of the Clan Donald gathered here to decide matters of law, land, religion, and marriage. We’ll spend two days exploring the island and its special place in the clan history. Iona Abbey Returning to the mainland, we’ll travel north to Oban for the easy ferry crossing to Mull. From there, we’ll begin our island adventures with visits to Duart Castle and Torosay Castle.

  • 1 1. SUMMARY the Purpose of This Report Is to Draw to the Attention of the Executive the Existence of the Argyll Marine Special
    ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL EXECUTIVE CORPORATE SERVICES 20 MARCH 2008 ARGYLL MARINE SAC FORUM 1. SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to draw to the attention of the Executive the existence of the Argyll Marine Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) Forum and to invite the Executive to appoint representatives from the Council. 2. RECOMMENDATION The Executive is invited to consider appointing one Member from each of Wards 5 and 2, and appoint one of those to Chair the Forum. 3. BACKGROUND Argyll and Bute Council has taken the lead on the management of the Loch Creran and the Firth of Lorn Special Areas of Conservation. These are marine SAC’s. Scottish Natural Heritage identified possible marine SAC’s and after consultation with the owners/occupiers and users of these areas the Scottish Executive designated these sites in terms of the EC Habitats Directive. Management plans for the Firth of Lorn and Loch Creran Marine SAC’s have been prepared and the Argyll Marine SAC Management Forum brings together organisations with an interest in the activities that have the potential to impact on the conservation of each marine SAC site and the management of these activities in a sustainable manner. A list of the organisation members of the Forum is attached at Appendix 1. The Forum generally meets once a year. 4. It is appropriate to consider the Members to be appointed to the Forum with reference to the ward boundaries established in May 2007. The whole of the Loch Creran site lies within Ward 5 (Oban North and Lorn).

Argyll covers the southwestern islands and western peninsulas of Scotland. While Ayrshire boundaries are well marked, Argyll is a bit more amorphous, encompassing a region that historically stretches into the Highlands. One of Ayrshire’s primary attractions is “Burns Country,” because the area was the poet Robert Burns’s birthplace as well as his predominant stomping grounds for most of his life. But Ayrshire also offers golfers some of the best links courses in the world. If you take the train from Glasgow to Ayr, the main town of Ayrshire, you can see one course after another in the sandy dunes along the shoreline. Argyll, which means the “coast of the Gaels,” encompasses islands such as Bute and Arran as well as the more remote Kintyre Peninsula. Kintyre is so sufficiently isolated that ex-Beatle Paul McCartney has long owned a ranch there where he and his family can retreat from prying eyes. It takes the better part of the day just to reach Kintyre, however, so I don’t dwellCOPYRIGHTED on its charms for too long in this MATERIAL chapter.
