A panoramic October 2021 view over Kilchoman beach from near the entrance through the dunes. Some threatening dark clouds in the north west, although it turned they didn’t amount to anything, no rain (at least while I was there)

Seen from the old radar station at Kilchiaran, a busy October day on KIlchoman beach. Usually the beach is mostly empty, I think this is probably some of the busiest I’ve ever seen it.
