A view south down the Sound of Islay from north of Bunnahabhain. In the foreground the wreck of the Wyre Majestic at Bunnahabhain. In the distance McArthur’s Head lighthouse. Kintyre on the horizon.
It has changed a lot since then, yet at the same time it has hardly changed at all. The wreck on the beach in Machir Bay has disappeared in and reappeared from the sand several time since this picture was taken in 1999. However, when it’s been fully visible it looked fairly similar to how it looks here.
