Fairly small but very beautiful, the beach near Port na Gallochoille on Islay’s neighbour Gigha. The view is north east over the Sound of Gigha with the Kintyre mainland in the distance.

A view back from an April afternoon crossing to Islay on the MV Finlaggan. Despite the overcast skies the long distance visibility was very good, allowing a nice view of the hills of the Isle of Arran towering over the lower landscape of the Kintyre peninsula.
