Oldshoremore Beach
Àisir Mòr
A white-sand bay within easy driving distance of Kinlochbervie, with clear water and rocky headlands, and easier to reach than Sandwood Bay.
Oldshoremore Beach lies about 3 km northwest of Kinlochbervie harbour. Gneiss rocks frame the bay, with fine white sand and emerald-green water in the middle. The small island of Am Meallan just offshore can be reached across the sand at low tide. A road leads right to a small car park above the beach, which has basic toilets, making it a good alternative to Sandwood Bay for visitors who would rather not hike, or a stop on the way there. It is about 35 km from Durness. Kinlochbervie is one of Scotland's major fishing ports, so you can buy fresh seafood there.
