Dunvegan Castle on the western shore of Skye is the oldest continuously inhabited castle in Scotland, home of the Clan MacLeod for over 800 years, and housing remarkable historical treasures including the Fairy Flag — a mysterious talisman said to have magical protective powers and dating from the 4th-7th century. Boat trips from the castle jetty to see the grey seals in Loch Dunvegan add to the experience. Hotels near Dunvegan Castle in the village of Dunvegan offer access to this ancient Clan seat and the wild Duirinish peninsula beyond.
