Eilean Chathastail (Eilean Castle) (56°52'N., 6°07'W.) is an islet lying close off the SE side of Eigg. A light is shown from a beacon standing on the E end of the islet. Rubha na Crannaig (56°53'N., 6°07'W.) is the low E end of Eigg. The coast N of the point is free of offshore dangers, but the N and W shores of the isle are reef fringed, as is the S shore where a bare rock lies 0.4 mile offshore. Tidal currents in the channel S of the rock set NW and N along the E coast of Rhum.
