Sango Bay
A sandy bay just below Durness village, with a mix of rocks and sand, and a clifftop campsite and trails overlooking the whole bay.
Sango Bay sits right next to Durness village. From the village visitor centre, or from the clifftop campsite Sango Sands, a short path leads down to the sand in just a few minutes. The golden beach is broken up by black rock outcrops, and at low tide you can explore the rock pools between them. The clifftop has viewpoints and benches, making it a good spot to watch the sunrise or huge waves on stormy days. The village's shops, cafés, and petrol station are all nearby, so it's a good place for a stroll after arriving in Durness. Walking about 2 km east brings you to Smoo Cave.
