Picture of a view of a canal, many sailing yachts in basins and locksSomething a bit different, as this is obviously not on Islay. This is at the Crinan Canal, if you have the time a very nice stop on a journey to or from Islay. The view here is from a Forestry Commission maintained car park (if memory serves me right with a nice picnic table and benches) at Dunardry. Watch the sailing yachts pass by and relax.
