Kilchoman beach from below the crags at the old radar station, Isle of Islay

A view from the track between Kilchoman and Kilchiaran, from just below Bealach na Caillich. I believe the rocks in front have fallen off the crags below the old radar station, probably wise to be careful in the area. Below Kilchoman beach in Machir Bay in stretching out into the distance. Taken on a beautiful April 2024 day.

A view from an Islay ferry en route to Port Askaig on a beautiful April afternoon. McArthur’s Head lighthouse on the right, in the distance is the headland around Carraig Mhòr. Not visible from here, but Proaig is in the bay between the two, hidden behind the lighthouse.
