Nip round the corner to the old settlement of Smirisary and circumnavigate Eilean Shona (if the tides are favourable). |
Look out for the remains of a vitrified fort on Eilean nan gobhar (goat island) at the mouth of the loch. |

Only accessible by boat, good hills to climb, good pub and a camp spot. |
Only the head of the loch accessible by road. Raised beaches, great views. |
