A view between some rocks at Lossit Bay on Islay’s Atlantic coast, some footprints in the sand from when I walked through this gap filming a video. Some nice sunshine on the clear turquoise water in the bay with a small wave breaking. Picture taken by my sister Imke.
Another picture from me going wild swimming in Machir Bay off Kilchoman beach, here my sister Imke captured me splashing around a bit in the waves. In this picture it might look like I’m in deep water, but rest assured I wasn’t. As there can be dangerous currents in Machir Bay I made sure I stayed close to the shore and was always able to stand.
A view back from an Islay ferry having just left Port Askaig en route to Kennacraig on the mainland in late June 2025. You can make out Port Askaig on the left as well as the famous Paps of Jura on the right. Sgarbh Breac on Islay also in the distance towards the left, but Rhuvaal lighthouse is too far to make out.
