A little breeze helped us on our way from Corriecravie round to Arran's south coast.
It was high water, so we glided across the great number of volcanic dykes (or cleits) that criss cross the
Cleats Shore.
This old stone gabled structure is now used as a
farm building but we wondered if it was once a chapel.
The Kilmory Water enters the sea just beyond Cleats Shore and carries fine sand from the hills above into the sea.
It has helped create a broad sweep of sand in the bay, backed by a raised beach and low cliffs. The wind dropped and the sea turned glassy calm as...
...our shadows drifted over the sands of ancients mountains that now lay below the sea.
