Rua Reidh Lighthouse from Jetty Path
When we last visited the Rua Reidh lighthouse it was in November and we experienced snow, rain and glorious sunshine as well as a howling gale, all within a 15 minute period. During the spring, summer and autumn months you will experience changes in weather, not as extreme as the winter months, however you should always come prepared for all types of weather.
