This two mile Coral Beach walk is classified as short and easy, suitable for a family outing and picnic in any weather. It is 25 miles from Portree and 10 minutes from Dunvegan castle, just north of a crofting community. The beaches are made of bleached white crushed coral. The seaweed just below the surface of the water gives the sea the appearance of aquamarine. The contrast between sea and sand is most vivid when the tide is halfway in or out. The walk and a visit to Dunvegan castle make a good combination for a day out.
