Scourie Bay

Sutherland in Summer saw us travelling around from the Coast in the East to The Coast in the West. There is a Scottish Folk Song which tributes the 'Folk of the West' but no song to say the West Coast with its wild beauty eclipses the East Coast.

Great beach! I can remember that I was once in Scourie but no detailed memories! Not sure it was one of those places in Scotland where we were bothered by excessive heat but may be, why not! That occured more than once, for sure! Tapadh Leat!

It looks lovely and sounds to be a great and relaxing place to visit with beautiful views, salty air and yummy raspberries!

Lucky you to have so many picturesque little villages within easy reach - not to mention the beautiful coastlines!! So it got that hot in Scotland!?? I think you have just confirmed Global Warming!

I guess, you enjoyed walking along this lovely beach with your dogs. It must have been hard to find a hotel for less than $10 which welcomes four legged companions, haha!

I see that global warming has reached you in Scotland as well. I never thought Scotland could be so hot. Lovely pictures and descriptions of the area. Tapadh Leat.

Another fine new page! I loved your photos and your poetic descriptions of Scourie beach and the memorial statue. (I thought dogs were called dugs in Scotland, not gogs, or is that in a different part of Scotland?)

Scottishvisitor's scurry to the Scourie seaside sent her scampering to some shade for swift succour from the scorching sun!
