Silene uniflora - Sea Campion

Sea campion is a native perennial of our coasts found on various habitats including sea-cliffs, shingles, sand dunes and strand lines. It can tolerate high nutrient levels (i.e. guano) and is particularly abundant on off-shore rocky islands and inaccessible cliff tops where large seabird colonies occur.

It's very pretty. The only one I've seen in Scotland is sea thrift. Must look out for this.

An excellent portrait of this hardy plant! In Iceland they even manage to grow in the barren volcanic deserts.
