The Isle of Lunga is the largest of the Treshnish Isles group. It is the main centre of bird population with thousands of puffins, guillemots, razorbills, storm petrels and Manx Shearwaters breeding on Lunga and on the Harp Rock, a sea stack separated by a narrow gut.

Lunga was populated until the 19th century and still bears the remains of black houses.
