A panoramic view over Port Charlotte from the pier on a beautiful April 2026 morning. Shore Street, the hotel, the former distillery (now home to the Youth Hostel) and the new developments at Robin Currie Way. Also the Loch Indaal lighthouse on the right.

A view over Machir Bay from Kilchoman beach in the gloaming just after sunset, looking south west. Admittedly you have to look closely, but then you’ll spot the half Moon high up in the sky. The crags and hills around Kilchiaran visible in the distance.
