The nearby island of Islay is a combination of dramatic sea cliffs, mountain moorland, and sweeping sandy bays bordered by sea water and the machair which is the low lying and highly fertile area of grassy ground between the beach and the peat bogs further inland. The machair is a haven for wildlife and attracts a great deal of ecological and conservational attention.
The island of Islay is world famous for its nine working distilleries and the now well-established Islay Festival of music and malt occurs at the end of May each year and draws people from all over the world.
