Where? Carradale, Kintyre

Located south of the quaint village of the same name, Carradale Beach boasts one of the most delightful harbours in Kintyre. On Carradale Bay, the wide sandy beach faces south, making it a lovely spot to paddle, sunbathe or beachcomb. Enjoy the panoramic views across the Sound of Arran, and look for the wild goats that inhabit a Scottish Wildlife Trust nature reserve on the east side of the beach on Carradale Point. Paul McCartney found inspiration from Kintyre’s gorgeous coastal scenery, and you will too when you visit Carradale Beach!
