The walk to Killinallan Point and if desired on to Gortantaoid along the beach is a great coastal walk on Islay. This picture is from a walking week a few years ago, we had just left from Killinallan Gate and were on our way down to the beach to walk to Killinallan Point. From there we continued to Gortantaoid.

I’m not sure where exactly this is, except that it is somewhere between Gruinart and Ardnave. This was during a walk at the Islay walking week a few years back, we walked from Gruinart to Ardnave over the hills and returned along Loch Gruinart. The hills in the distance are near Sanaigmore.
