I think I took this picture from the ferry over to Jura, looking back to Islay. The sailing yacht was tacking down the Sound of Islay, not sure if it had at least the tide pushing it. In the background is Dunlossit House high above the sound.
Two well known commercial vehicles on Islay seen in Port Askaig: One of Mundell’s lorries and one of Islay’s coaches. This is a slightly older picture, taken before Port Askaig was redeveloped.
Probably the highest tide I can remember seeing in Port Askaig, the water in the Sound of Islay being almost level with the pier. A few minutes before this picture (unfortunately didn’t have the camera ready at that time) the Calmac employee collecting the tickets had to run to save himself when the wash from the leaving Jura ferry washed over the pier completely flooding it. You can still see of the water the car is driving through.
