| [Saligo Bay] |
The flat Rinns of Islay on the western side of the island boasts several beautiful beaches, from
Portnahaven in the south to
Sanaigmore in the north. Roughly three-quarters of the way up is Saligo Bay: smaller than many of its counterparts but with beautiful rock architecture and the same wild feel. We can imagine that this west-facing bay must be a pretty special place at sunset; it's certainly not bad at sunrise, with rays of light first touching the sand dunes before gradually turning the soft sands golden. The coastline to the south is worth exploring too: perhaps there's a
walk for that?
