Camustianavaig lies at the foot of Ben Tianavaig, a hill extending to 413m which is popular with walkers. A pair of Sea Eagles can occasionally be spotted soaring over the hill.

From the top of the hill there are panoramic views across the islands of Raasay and Rona towards the mainland, down towards the Cuillins and across Portree, north and westwards towards the hills of Harris and Lewis in the distance.
