About

Nigg Bay is a mountain in highlands. (Cove to the east of Aberdeen, Scotland.) According to Wikipedia: "Nigg Bay is a cove to the east of Aberdeen, between Girdle Ness and Greg Ness, in the old parish of Nigg. The ruined parish church, St Fittick's, lies a short distance from the shore. It is said to have been founded by Fittick, an Irish monk who was washed ashore here after a group of sailors threw him overboard during a storm."
