Dalmore Beach
Dail Mòr
A white-sand bay near Dun Carloway, enclosed by headlands, with orderly Atlantic swells. It is a favorite with surfers and photographers.
Dalmore Beach sits at the end of a small valley north of Gearrannan Black House Village. Its golden-white sand is flanked by two headlands, and rock stacks stand in the water. The surf conditions are steady, and surfers are often present. An old graveyard lies behind the beach. You can walk from the Black House Village along the coastal path in about 1 hour, or drive straight to the car park. Strong rip currents are present, so take care when swimming.
