St Kilda Attractions & Activities - The Best Holiday Destinations for 2020
Saint Kilda is the westernmost of the Outer Hebrides in Scotland, and is arguably geographically separate enough to be considered an individual island rather than part of that chain. It is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
There are St Kildas in the New World: in Melbourne Melbourne/St Kilda, Dunedin and Adelaide.
St Kilda was evacuated in 1930. Currently the only residents are the Warden and an Army camp (including civilian contractors) giving a total population well under 50. Around 2000 people visit St Kilda each year.
St Kilda is actually a set of islands and everything here is about the main island, Hirta. The other islands Dun, Soay and Boreray are uninhabited and rarely visited by travellers.
