Cliff

What is recorded here

Stac na Craoibhe is shown as a cliff on the public map of Argyll and Bute. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Stac na Craoibhe is a sea stack or isolated sea cliff, likely composed of basalt or other volcanic rock, formed by differential erosion of a volcanic plug or columnar jointing from ancient lava flows. It is probably of Tertiary age (around 60 to 55 million years old), reflecting the geological history of the Scottish Highlands, and is notable as a dramatic coastal landform shaped by marine erosion.
