Sunset at Clachtoll, a pebble beach is in foreground, still bay beyond, and further off is a golden-lit, red-rock headland of rock, with a separated slab like a huge triangle. A little white sand beach is glimpsed in the distance. The sky is soft peachy-blue-grey with golden clouds near horizon of mountains.

Photo of white sand beach, to the right the water is lipid turquoise as the sun shines on it, in the centre are black weed covered rocks, and to the left the water is glistening white in sun. There is black coast rocks framing the view. The sky and horizon transforms from blue with white clouds on the right to a lowering grey approaching rain on the left.

View of turquoise waters of a marine bay with white sand, some rocks at the right and another little white sand beach visible across the water. The hills above are rounded grey gneiss with some green turf. It's sunny and the sky is blue and the water looks very tempting.
