The museum is very interesting for all ages. There is also a nice restaurant, a shop and you can have a look around the castle which was built in 1844

Sightseeing

Very beautiful sight 5000 year old stones. Either to worship the moon or an ancient God or a burial place, nobody knows. But it is a magical place. Go early or late to avoid the busier times. There is great food in the visitors centre

Parks & Nature

Toilets on the first mile long sandy beach, beautiful stacks you can walk round on the second beach. A cave you can explore on the far right. Do check out when low tide is or you can't see as much of this wonderful place
