A stormy day on the west coast of Islay in late November 2025. Waves are rolling into Machir Bay, running up Kilchoman beach all the way to the dunes with the sea foam being blown around by the strong wind.
Most people will have only seen it from Kilchoman beach, here is a closer look at Eilean an Tannais-sgeir here seen pretty much as close as you can get from An Dòirlinn.
A view from a walk along the north shore of Machir Bay on a beautiful June 2025 day. I dont know what it once was, but below us the ruin of an old stone building with the roof blown off, probably during one of the westerly winter storms. The Rhinns of Islay coastline with the entrance to Kilchiaran bay and the cliffs stretching out down to Lossit Bay.
