One of the best sunsets I’ve watched from a Kilchoman beach for some time was this one in late November 2023. As the sun disappeared behind the horizon the clouds over Machir Bay lit up in some beautiful orange and red colours below the dark grey and black clouds. It didn’t last long, but was an amazing sight while it lasted.
A beautiful November sunset on the west coast of Islay, a great time to walk the dogs on Kilchoman beach. Not sure if dogs can appreciate beautiful sunsets, but they certainly had fun chasing their ball and running into the water.
A view from Sgioba Cottage on a November day on the Rhinns of Islay. Straight ahead the old Port Charlotte distillery warehouses, now home to the Islay Natural History Trust (INHT) and the Youth Hostel. Loch Indaal on the left with the Oa in the distance.
