Arriving out on Kilchoman beach on a stormy late November afternoon. Some washed up seaweed covered in sea foam right where the dune path reaches the beach. Lots of sea foam spread out over the beach, pushed up by the incoming waves from the Atlantic and Machir Bay.

Out on Kilchoman beach this is the southern end of the beach, where the rocky crags rise up to the steep Kilchoman crags and the crags leading to Kilchiaran. At times nice rock pools form here, great for exploring and playing.
