Thanks Dave, lovely pics. I was up last week and driving home saw that particular sight. I also walked along Westport, Machrihanish, Carskiey, Dunaverty, Brunerican and further round were the mast is at Southend. Boy was it hot round there.

One from the start of June showing the Seaside Award flag at Machrihanish which was awarded on 26th May 2010.

However, it is still on this list. Should something not be done about this?

It's inbetween Tayinloan and Rhunhaorine Point (Grid ref NR694483). A good way to it is to follow the Kintyre Way North from Tayinloan which is convenient for parking.

As Ship says 'Yes', the entrance is opposite Rhunhaorine School and via Low Dunashery Farm. Not too sure if you're welcome to park there though, can't see what harm it would do outwith the season.
