A beautiful morning as we headed up into the Summer isles.
The first isle, Carn nan Sgeir, was a pleasant surprise.
The water was crystal clear between Horse Island and Meall nan Gabhar.
Onwards to Tanera Mor looking for a lunch stop.
We'd spotted an opportunity on the map to top up our water supplies. On arrival at the beach we were greeted by a construction worker who related that the facilities were closed due to building works but we could refill from a tap.
Fish farm between Tanera Mor and Tanera Beg.
A small sandy beach for lunch on Eilean Fada Mor. Sandy beaches like this are few and far between in the Summer Isles.
To Glas-leach Mor.
And Eilean Mullagrach.
Then Isle Ristol.
