A panoramic view of a fascinating part of the west coast of Islay just northwest of Smaull. On the left the cliffs known to some as Sleeping Giant, to others as the Opera House Rocks. But that’s not all, if you look to the right you’ll spot some interesting rock formations. I believe they are called ‘folded metasandstones of the Smaull Greywacke Formation’ (based on a picture and description I found on page 2 of ‘A Guide to the Geology of Islay’ by David Webster, Roger Anderton and Alasdair Skelton, a very interesting book).
