Watched from an arriving Islay ferry, the Port Ellen maltings and (reopened) distillery on an April evening, the Thalassa, a regular visitor, anchored in front of it.
During a November 2025 walk out on Kilnaughton beach, looking across the bay to the Port Ellen maltings and the old Port Ellen distillery warehouses. If you look closely, hidden behind the trees you can just make out the new/rebuilt Port Ellen distillery.
A view from a ferry at Port Ellen pier, looking over the water to some key Islay whisky sites. In the front some of the old warehouses from the original Port Ellen distillery, at some point shut down. Behind it to the right the industrial Port Ellen maltings and to the left the rebuilt and reopened distillery with lots of glass and other modern features.
