Now here is a little hidey-hole on the coast of Scarba, not in the Sailing Directions, but good for a lunch stop or waiting for the tide at the Corryvreckan, but not so good for swell. Go ashore and walk 215° and you will find two satisfactory caves to crouch in, or in which to light a fire, with bones. But when the bracken is fully-grown they might be trickier to find than in late May when a cuckoo calls.
