In between Dervaig & Calgary you will see a sign post for Croig. It is well worth the detour down the track to the old harbour. There is a good walk here if you are that way inclined or you might be lucky as we were to see an Otter. This is my photo, Ian got some better shots with a bigger lens. We watched him for at least an hour, feeding on crabs & fish before settling down in the seaweed for a sleep. Magic, for the best part there was no-one else about just the 2 of us & the Otter.
Whilst you are in the vicinity you should visit "am birlinn", a restaurant come stopping off place that should not be missed. You can get a coffee, cakes, beer & wine. To eat there are six oysters with Guinness or a glass of sparkly or a full meal. The menu is very good and the chef is excellent. Yes it is a bit out of the way but if you are passing drop in. You will be sure of a friendly welcome. If you fancy going for dinner they will send a free courtesy bus to pick you up and take you home - honestly. The very generous glass of sparkly is £4.50 a glass - it's a no brainer! WWW. ambirlinn.com
