Ahead of the summer, travel experts have unveiled a new list of Scotland's 'best beaches for a summer holiday' — with four scenic bays across the country singled out.
There is no wrong time to head to the beach, with Scotland's coast looking beautiful no matter the weather. However, nothing can top a seaside day out during the summer when the temperature is warm.
Calgary Bay is backed by machair, which is only found in Scotland and Ireland. It also features a woodland area that includes walks that pass through a range of sculptures and art installations. Another bay that the experts named among the best in Scotland for a summer holiday is Sandwood Bay in Sutherland. A natural bay on the far northwest coast of mainland Scotland, Sandwood Bay can only be reached via a four-mile path leading from the gravel car park in the nearby hamlet of Blairmore.
