A hazy walk on the Oa in the south of Islay on a hazy Sunday in April 2019. The view from Beinn Mhòr was a bit limited, although it was still possible to make out the American Monument at the Mull of Oa and the Rhinns of Islay in the distance.

During the Islay walking week 2019 we visited Beinn Mhór, at 202m the highest hill on the Oa. Here some walkers are enjoying a nice view over the steep cliffs and the American Monument in the distance.
