Swirling tidal waters between Scarba and Lunga (Corryvreckan trip, excursion from Islay)

A view of the racing tide between Scarba and Lunga (if I remember correctly Scarba on the left, Lunga on the right). While its much much bigger sibling Corryvreckan Whirlpool is of course much more famous this is a place I think should get much more appreciation. The changing tide being forced through a very narrow channel producing some fascinating currents and tidal races.
