| Can you see Ailsa Craig in the background?? |
- The finest Curling Stones in the world are harvested from granite found on Ailsa Craig. Al 64 stones used in the Sochi Winter Olympics 2014 were produced with Scottish granite.
- Ailsa Craig lies halfway between Glasgow and Belfast, off the West Coast of Scotland and is only accessible by boat.
- It is home to the UK’s 3rd largest Gannetry and is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Special Protection Area because it is home to 73,000 breeding sea birds.
