Scotland's Finest Beaches

Did you ever think about Scotland and beaches? Probably not. They are amazing (most of them). Imagine the Caribbean without the palm trees and the almost guaranteed sun. The beaches in this listing have not been rated, because they are generally considered to be the very best Scotland has to offer and it must be said the ones I visited were absolutely stunning to say the least. Out of this world all three of them and easily ***, but maybe you better judge for yourself (Left click on images for a better view).
