Portree (Isle of Skye), United Kingdom


Known for its beautiful natural harbor and quaint, brightly painted shops and homes, Loch Dunvegan is a lovely setting for a scenic getaway. As is true for the rest of the Isle of Skye, the town of Dunvegan holds strong to its ancestral roots, celebrating Nordic traditions and family lineage. The reverent grandeur of Dunvegan Castle tells the tale of more than 800 years of MacLeod family history. Diverse populations of seals may also be found just a boat ride away on the loch itself.
