One of the best excursions from Islay, a visit to the Corryvreckan Whirlpool in the Gulf of Corryvreckan between Jura and Scarba. Some nice white water whirling while the whirlpool is running.

A nice short stop on the Kilberry Road, the collection of carved stones called the Kilberry Stones. One of the things to see on the Kilberry Road, a nice detour on the way to/from Islay.
