We visit the southern tip of this island, where the majority of the season visitors make their home - this little island provides the bredding and nesting groups for as much as 20% of the global atlantic puffin population. We walk the coastal path by the lighthouse where we can spot these good natured creatures going about their daily lives.

We visit Eldfell Volcano famed for the 1973 eruption that destroyed over 400 homes and led to the evacution of the island for around 2 years. Lava fields now cover much of the eastern part of the islands, with the homes of many forever lost to the earth´s elemental forces.
