A view from the Islay to Colonsay ferry to the north of Islay. Rhuvaal lighthouse guards the far northern tip of Islay. Sgarbh Breac (364m, highest hill in the north of Islay) in the centre. The Sound of Islay to the left.
A view from the far north of Islay, you can’t go much further north. Looking up Rhuvaal lighthouse with the bright June sun right above. My sister and I had walked up from Bunnahabhain and passed below the lighthouse on our way to Bàgh an Dà Dhoruis. A great view of this beautiful lighthouse in one of the remotest parts of Islay.
An impression from an Islay walking week a few years ago. On the homeward leg of a long walk around the north of Islay walkers approach the Sound of Islay with the dramatic backdrop of the Paps of Jura.
