Rubh' an Aoinidh Bhig is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature located in the Highland region of Scotland, composed primarily of basaltic rock formed during the Paleogene period, around 60 to 55 million years ago. It is notable as part of the extensive volcanic terrain associated with the North Atlantic Igneous Province, formed by ancient lava flows linked to the opening of the Atlantic Ocean.
