Ord, Sleat Peninsula, Skye

On a recent visit to Skye we had the pleasure of joining an outing led by a ranger from Scottish Natural Heritage at Ord beach, on the Sleat Peninsula (thanks, Lindsey!). Here are some photos from that very enjoyable outing. We hope this helps give a flavour for the type of lovely scenery and natural life you can experience on Skye. It is well worthwhile simply donning a pair of wellies and poking about in tidepools along the shore when the tide is out.
