The Cuillin Sound and Skye, as seen from East Rùm

Cuillin Sound is a sound (inlet) that separates the island of Skye from the islands of Rùm and Canna, all of which are located in Scotland's Inner Hebrides.[1]

The sound gives its name to the H.M.S. Cuillin Sound, a British repair ship that was allocated to the British Pacific Fleet during World War II.[2]
