Peninver Sands

This long, white sandy beach on Ardnacross Bay is one of the few places in Scotland where you can still spot creelers launch their fishing boats from a beach – you might also spy seals, dolphins and porpoises.

When the wind is in the west swimmers can enjoy a refreshing dip in the clean, clear waters.

Local facilities include ample car parking space, a popular caravan park and a cosy pub with a bijou beer garden boasting beautiful sea views.
