About

The beach has white sand, made up of broken shells. The machair runs parallel to the beach and is ideal for walking. It is a haven for wildlife, such as the elusive corncrake and in the summer months the machair is peppered with an assorted variety of wildflowers, including rare orchids. There are also Picnic benches to sit and enjoy the view and have your picnic.
