📌 Craighouse, Isle of Jura
★★★
Corran Sands is a candidate for Jura’s best beach and one of the many good reasons to explore the narrow main road beyond Craighouse. The white sand (at low tide) extends for a couple of miles east from the main road, split in two by the fast-flowing Corran River. Meanwhile, the machair behind the bay doubles as the island’s emergency landing strip, backed by the scree-ridden domes of the Paps of Jura.
