Probably one of the best driving views on Islay, the view from Port Askaig Brae. Especially on a clear sunny day with the amazing views of two of the Paps of Jura (the third is hiding behind them), Beinn a’ Chaolais and Beinn an Oir. The Sound of Islay between Islay and Jura just below the bend.
Looking across the Sound of Islay from a ferry moored at Port Askaig to the hills and mountains in the south of Jura. The famous Paps of Jura on the left with Beinn a’Chaolais closest to us, Beinn an Oir to the left of it. I’m not sure of the hills in the centre and to the right, I think Glas Bheinn and Dubh Beinn will be among them. Also Feolin Ferry, the landing for the Jura ferry, at the shore on the right.
A view from the road between Kilchoman and Saligo, looking across Loch Gorm to the Paps of Jura on the horizon. From left to right: Beinn an Oir, Beinn Shiantaidh and Beinn a’ Chaolais.
