Faill a' Cholúir is a sea cliff on the Scottish coast, likely composed of basalt or other igneous rock formed during the Paleogene period, around 60 to 55 million years ago, associated with the opening of the North Atlantic. Its name and distinctive curved or pigeon-shaped appearance make it a notable and locally significant coastal landform.
