The hamlet of Fionnphort sits on the western edge of the southern arm of the Island of Mull—called the Ross of Mull. The ferry leaves Fionnphort for the short trip across to the island of Iona. My B-and-B proprietor suggested I walk next door to make a reservation for dinner at The Keel Row. I reserved the last available time hoping I could get some sunset images before dinner, and I took my camera across the road to the cove that looked over to Iona. Low tide beached a boat in the mud.

Walking further down the wet sand to beach to view the red granite across the cove catching the sunset light.
Fionnphort means white sands or white port, but as the tide went out the ripples looked quite dark.
View across to Iona
Time to walk back up to the top of the cove and get a final shot before dinner.
