AFTER the success of Brilliant Island Moments last year, VisitScotland has teamed up with Caledonian MacBrayne and Serco NorthLink Ferries to encourage people to discover for the first time – or get re-acquainted with – Scotland’s islands.
The campaign, which is open to UK residents, offers 8,000 free passenger tickets for an offshore adventure. There will be a draw each week, up until 25 March, with 4,000 winners receiving two foot passenger tickets for their chosen route.
In 2014, a record-breaking 63,000 people from the UK entered the Brilliant Island Moments prize draw, nearly double the amount of entrants for 2013’s campaign.
Brodick on the Isle of Arran was the most popular destination with 9,470 requests. In second place was Shetland (8,989), followed by Lewis (7,048), Mull (6,710) and Orkney (6,204).
Mike Cantlay, chairman of VisitScotland said: ‘In Scotland, we are very lucky to have hundreds of islands, each with their own diverse landscape, rich wildlife, unique character, and delicious food and drink. From rugged mountainous geography to Caribbean-like white sand beaches, there are so many reasons to visit our islands.’
