166. Fascadale Bay

Remote Fascadale Bay is another of the tiny coves which indent the dramatic north coast of the Ardnamurchan peninsula. Unlike its near neighbours, Fascadale’s beach is made up of grey pebbles and shingle. A holiday cottage sits alone at the top of the bay and a track leads down onto the beach with stunning views across to the Small Isles. On this occasion, the beach is populated by a number of rather indignant cows who obviously don’t want me to come any further. Given there are small calves among their number, I show due respect and stand admiring the beach from the track instead. That’s why my photos are all similar!
