Splendid drive over a high pass to the old crossing point to Skye (community ferry in season). Ancient brochs, well worth seeing. Good pub with food. 35 min drive, but you'll want to stop at the pass.

A bit of a drive (allow 1.5 hrs), but a very special place, with incredible rock formations. A lot can be seen from the road or with very little easy walking.
