Rockall. Rockall is a very small, uninhabited island located around 300 miles (480 km) off the west coast of mainland Scotland.

Tour the museum in the keeperâs quarters and learn about the history of the island, its keepers, and the magnificent St. Lawrence River. Walk the island and take home a souvenir from the gift shop. The Rock Island Lighthouse is located in the Thousand Islands, about 4.5 miles northeast of Clayton, Jefferson County, NY, off of Fisher's Landing. Docking is available to private craft and those aboard Clayton Island Boat Tours. For private vessels, Grass Point State Park is the closest launch site (about a 5 minute boat ride to the island).
