<br />
What a bay……<br />
Gruinard Bay.<br />
The shallow bay.<br />
Flounders are fished.<br />
Eight superb crescent beaches<br />
edge its pristine shoreline like<br />
happy, smiling mouths.<br />
Ancient, rounded hills and arrowed headlands<br />
emerged, nigh on, 3 billion years ago.<br />
Gushing rivers, bottle-green forests,<br />
precipitous gorges and plunging cataracts.<br />
Heather moorland.<br />
Bright patches of fertile pasture and arable land<br />
interspersed with the wild land.<br />
Looming above are the mountain sentinels of<br />
rounded Sàil Mhòr and the mighty, <br />
cloud-veiled, peaks of An Teallach.<br />
Views north to the Summer Isles, Achiltibuie,<br />
Gruinard Island and the mountains of Coigach and Sutherland.<br />
Vistas west to Laide, Mellon Udrigle and the Rubha Mòr Peninsula.<br />
A stunning, awesome coastline that inspires wonder,<br />
and works its spell on our psyche.</p>
