The map
Staffa is a small, uninhabited island in the Inner Hebrides, lying off the west coast of Mull. From above it is compact and roughly oval, a grassy plateau surrounded by steep cliffs. There are no roads or buildings. The island's shape is set almost entirely by its rock, and its edges are where the interest lies.
Those edges are built from columnar basalt, formed as ancient lava flows cooled and cracked into regular, many-sided pillars. The most famous result is Fingal's Cave, a tall sea cave lined with columns, which inspired Felix Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture after his visit in 1829. The island is cared for by the National Trust for Scotland, and puffins nest on its clifftops in summer.
Most people see Staffa from a boat trip out of Mull or Iona, landing briefly to walk the columns and the grassy top. A Staffa map poster frames the island as a small, solid form in the Atlantic, and a wider view can take in the scattered islands and coast of Mull around it.
A tall sea cave on the island's southern side, lined with basalt columns. It became famous in the nineteenth century and inspired Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture.
The island is ringed by cliffs of hexagonal columns rising from the sea, which give it a sharp, clean edge against the surrounding water.
The top of the island is a flat, open expanse of grass without roads or buildings, drawn on the map as a quiet interior within the cliffs.

Why Staffa
Staffa is a pilgrimage for geology lovers, music lovers and anyone who has made the boat crossing from Mull. Its small, bold shape makes a striking print, especially with plenty of open sea around it.
You can personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, perhaps with a line from the Hebrides Overture or the date of a crossing, and choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Noir suits the dark basalt particularly well.
