A view from the RIB on the way from Craighouse on Jura to the Corryvreckan whirlpool: A large Seal is resting on a rocky outcrop in the Bay of Small Isles, for a brief moment the Skervuile lighthouse in the Sound of Jura comes into view in a gap in the rocks.

Taken not long after leaving Craighouse pier for a trip to the Corryvreckan, a view of Beinn Shiantaidh (one of the Paps of Jura) towering over the northern end of Craighouse. I was staying in the white lower cottage on the right hand side of the four cottages for a week in June 2019.

A very nice detour when walking along the Corran Path at the Corran Sands on the Isle of Jura: The Corran Path Sonic Playground. Created by Giles Perring you can play on a Batphone and a Xylophone, made from metal and plastic pipes. Great fun to play on and creating your own musical masterpieces.
