Forty-one miles (66 km) out into the open Atlantic from Benbecula, the remote bird archipelago of St Kilda was settled in early prehistoric times and played an important role under the Norsemen. Leading a spartan existence that was a relentless struggle for survival, its hardy islanders evacuated in 1930, never to return. Experience their legacy from Hebridean Princess, cruising from the Inner to the Outer Hebrides, with a call at the magical bird paradise of the Shiant Isles, on this voyage to remember.
