Approaching Fingals Cave on the Isle of Staffa whilst on a @staffa_tours boat trip was an incredible sight. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. Fingal’s Cave is formed entirely from hexagonally jointed basalt columns within a Paleocene lava flow and is similar in structure to the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland. #scotland #visitscotland #staffa #fingalscave #isleofmull #isleofstaffa #scottishisles #scottishislands #cave #explore #boattrip #geology #scottish #hiddenscotland #explorescotl

Fingal’s Cave is a sea cave on the uninhabited island of Staffa, part of the Inner Hebrides in Scotland. It is famous for its striking hexagonal basalt columns, which were formed by volcanic activity around 60 million years ago, similar to the formations at the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland. The cave is about 72 feet (22 meters) high and 270 feet (82 meters) deep, allowing water to flow in and create an impressive natural acoustic effect. You can visit the cave by boat tours from Oban, Mu
