The beaches of Sanna Bay and elsewhere on the Ardnamurchan peninsula are nothing short of spectacular. The beaches are pure white shell-sand.
Commentary.
1. A gem of the western coast.
This clutch of a dozen sandy coves is a microcosm of this convoluted, fascinating and spectacular three thousand mile coastline.
2. Green hills sweeping down to the rock-pooled bays.
An isolated hamlet dotting the shore with white-washed cottages.
A plethora of white shell-sand beaches punctuated by green algae-clad slabs harbouring pools, thronging with life.
Marram grass binding dune walls for shelter from sea-breezes.
A vibrant, fertile, magnificent ocean.
Magical, mountainous offshore islands, Canna, Rum, Eigg and Muck.
3. Marine life as diverse as red anenomes, razor shells, spider crabs, porpoises, dolphins and massive basking sharks.
Such is Sanna on the volcanic and far western edge of the most westerly peninsula.
A haven, a heaven on earth, eternal, holy, unspoilt, proud and captivating.
