Ceannabeinne Beach -Sutherland
Sited underneath Beinn Ceannabeinne a mountain with an elevation of 1250 ft is the beautiful sand of Ceannabeinne (means head or end of the mountains). The rock underlying the bay and headlands is Lewisian gneiss, which has been fractured by a northeast-trending fault line along which the inlet has been excavated. The cliff wall backing the beach is broken by three steep-sided valleys separated by minor headlands.
