Coral Beach lies at the end of a short walk from the road past Claigan, north of Dunvegan. The path crosses cropped pasture and ends at one of the most surprising stretches of shoreline in the Hebrides — a fine, almost white beach against turquoise water, framed by green hills.
The walk is straightforward and takes about half an hour each way. Wear boots in wet weather, the path can be muddy. There is no shelter at the beach, and the wind off the loch can be sharp even in summer.
