Probably one of the best views you can get on Islay on a clear day, the view over the dramatic cliffs of the Oa with the American Monument, Kintyre in the background. Then the wide North Channel with Ireland just visible in the distance.

A view from the Mull of Oa, looking up to the American Monument on top of the steep and dramatic cliffs of the Oa in the south of Islay. Kintyre also visible in the distance on the right.
