Shuna

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shuna is the name of two islands in Argyll and Bute, Scotland.

The larger Shuna is one of the Slate Islands lying east of Luing at grid reference NM760080. It is privately owned and not permanently inhabited, although four houses are used as holiday cottages. In the 2001 census, Shuna was one of four Scottish islands with a population of one.

Unlike the other Slate Islands, Shuna has little slate, and has historically been farmed. It also has areas of woodland. There are several cairns in the south and west of the small island.

The smaller Shuna Island is located in Loch Linnhe, offshore from Appin at grid reference NM915495
