Seilebost beach — Attraction in Harris

Stunning stunning stunning. White sands green waters comparable to tropical beaches. You would never guess it was the UK. Here in August with persistent rain and intense winds while it's 30 degrees in the North West uk. Was a few large jellyfish in the water a variey of different ones washed up on the sands. The views of the beach are ever changing due to the rain fall, tides and peat running into the waters. Crazy to be on such an amazing beach, alone in August. You will not be disappointed whatever the weather with this...

Did not get to go down on to this beautiful beach, but we did enjoy a fantastic view of it from a lay-by on the A859, just after the tiny village of Seilebost, on a scenic drive from Tarbert. It's a photographer's dream: white sand lapped by a turquoise sea, with a spectacular backdrop of hill scenery and the uninhabited island of Taransay across the sound. It's one of many beaches along this stretch of coast; we could actually see three of them from this viewpoint. Well worth making...

Great beach, even better when the tide is out! Lovely soft sand, water was warm when we went in. Shallow as well so good for the kids! Parking is less than 5 mins walk, at the old school.
