It was a pretty miserable day, yet we still walked out to Rhuvaal lighthouse during the Islay walking week in April 2015. Despite the horrible conditions it turned out to be a very enjoyable walk.
A view from the ferry in the Sound of Islay looking north. In the foreground on the right is Jura with the lighthouse at Carragh an t-Sruith. In the middle distance Colonsay, behind it in the far distance Mull with the Munro Ben More towering over the view.
