Awoke to bright sun to up before 7 to get out while it lasted. Quick walk to headland but no sign of wildlife (deer and otters seen here). Weather closing in already so good views of Cullins on Skye now gone and rain starting.
Breakfast at 8:30 and rain pouring down so we’ve decided to stay at base until about 11 as the rain band may have moved through. The plan is to head for Loch Nevis (Loch of Heaven) and go ashore at Inverie, where there is some options for shelter!
Sea calm but very misty. Arrived at Inverie and rain falling headed into woods for some shelter. Very mossy and green. Used compact camera mainly, mossies started to bite so applied deet and managed to get some in my eye, ouch!
Had packed lunch in the woods and rain stopped and sky brightened. Headed back to sea level and sun shining strongly. Wet kit dried out and enjoyed the sunshine.
After a leisurely time in the sun took the Mary Doune to a rarely visited headland (Rubha Ranouil) to get views of the bay and close ups of plants and seashore.
On the way back saw some seals on a small island and back to Doune.
