Seen from Port Charlotte, some aerial traffic above Laggan Point. A Gannet about to dive for some food in Loch Indaal while the service plane is on its way to land at Islay International Airport.

A panoramic view over Port Charlotte from the pier on a beautiful April 2026 morning. Shore Street, the hotel, the former distillery (now home to the Youth Hostel) and the new developments at Robin Currie Way. Also the Loch Indaal lighthouse on the right.

I’m not sure if this picture is of the sunset or the gloaming after the sunset, as the clouds on the horizon prevented me from seeing the sun setting. Just a few minutes before I could still see the sun above the clouds while walking through the dunes. Still, the colours in the sky and clouds were beautiful.
