25. Bay at the Back of the Ocean

After the thrill of exploring the spectacular North End beaches on this bright, sunny morning, I head back down to the centre of Iona. I take a right turn along the shore road, through a golf course and onto the expansive Bay at the Back of the Ocean (Camas Cuil an t-Saimh). There is so much to see and do on this beach with coloured pebbles, rock pools, and white-sand dunes forming an attractive arc.  It really is the back of the ocean, as the next stop west is Canada.
