Just a wee post to let you all see this cute wee village we passed through today on our way around the Black Isle and Cromarty Firth.
Village is called Avoch,
Absolutely quaint, yet at the same time stunning
Like the land that time has forgotten for about 50 years
No cafe, nothing really apart from a wee harbour
Despite it being a really hot day, not a soul on the beach
Here are some pictures

Well I think so.
Waves bashing on the shore throwing foam all over the road no doubt

@Ineeddentures That was something we really loved. We had a small grill, we used coal, the taste of fresh fish grilled was so good.

I did that when I lived in my tent on the beach.
There were fish nets
And I used to swim out and take the odd fish from them

That sounds great Anna.
I know we can buy fish straight from the boat in am y places here on Scotland
But grilling the fish on the beach sounds awesome

What a beautiful little village! Places like that have a charm that's hard to find these days. Sometimes the lack of cafés, shops, and crowds is exactly what makes them so special.
