About Back

  • The Point peninsula, on which Back is situated, is one of the most densely populated parts of Lewis outside Stornoway, with a series of townships strung along the east coast of the peninsula. The area has a strong Gaelic culture and a tradition of crofting that has shaped the landscape and the communities for centuries. The sandy beach at Back is one of the most attractive on the east coast of Lewis, and the views across the Minch to the mountains of the Scottish mainland — particularly the peaks of Torridon and the Applecross peninsula — are among the finest in the Outer Hebrides. The Western Isles have the highest proportion of Gaelic speakers of any area in Scotland, and the language remains a living part of everyday life in the townships of Lewis.
