Skerryvore a reef south of Tiree and with a Stevenson Lighthouse is one of my destinations this summer, probably mid August.
I've sailed past it a few times, but never landed, and hope to do that this year.
Anyone landed there? Any advice?
What is anchorage like? Must be possible as there's plenty lobster fishers go there, and divers too.
Be very weather and seastate dependent I think.
 
I went in to the east side, 3 years ago. Didn't anchor nor land. The rocks give you a little protection. The chart talks of a 2.7m reported shallow area, so did not go close. Would go back on a calmer day...
