📌 Carnish, Isle of Lewis
★★★
Carnish Beach lies on the other side of a minor headland from the western part of the enormous Uig Sands – of which there are excellent views from the beach’s short approach path. The white sand is reasonably sheltered by surrounding promontories and islets, and doesn’t get busy due to limited nearby parking.
