A view from the Islay ferry on a beautiful April afternoon: In the foreground the low hills of Kintyre, behind it the hills of the Isle of Arran (who gave its name to one of the Islay ferries).
A view from a journey to Islay in April 2016, looking down Loch Fyne towards the Isle of Arran with snow on the hilltops. On the right the lighthouse on Ardrishaig Pier, near the entrance to the Crinan Canal.
A very nice stop on the journey to Islay is the Crinan Canal. Here we are overlooking a lock at the Loch Fyne end of the canal in Ardrishaig. In the far distance you can just make out the Isle of Arran.
