Due to the presence of an
amphidromic point between Islay and the Mull of Kintyre, the mean spring tidal range on the west coast of Gigha is only about 1m so we did not ...
...need to pull the kayaks very far up the beach before settling down to...
...enjoy the sunset.
We gazed wistfully at the islands on the horizon,
Islay to the west and Jura to the north west and...
...,as the midge attack lessened, made plans to visit Islay in July. At the back of my mind I suspected this might be wishful thinking, After 4 days of paddling my shoulder was giving me real concern. I knew I would have to go and see about it on my return.
Ever so gradually the day faded away over Islay and...
...Jura but it was still light when we went to bed about midnight. We may have dreamed of Hebridean Isles but on this trip we were living the dream!
