This giant stretch of silver sand is tucked away at the head of Loch Buie. To reach it, it's a 30 minute walk from the car park in Lochbuie village (where there is also the Post Office café). The path leads you past the romantic ruins of Moy Castle and along the shoreline, with breathtaking views of Ben Buie as your backdrop. It's a haven for wildlife, so keep your eyes peeled for birds of prey soaring overhead and Highland Coo on the sands.
