It was a long day under engine but finally we got to our place for the night – Loch Shieldaig in Loch Gairloch. We tied up to one of the mooring buoys for visitors rather dropping our anchor. Solid moorings, run by the Highland Harbour Council and used by fishing boats during winter and off season.

A marvellous spot, quiet and peaceful. Few uninhabited leisure boats left alone on long term moorings, otherwise nobody there. We are the only visiting yacht. The traditional four star lodge framing the bay has got some business. Mentally, we more and more start to arrive in this part of the world and acknowledge its beauty. 

We decided to stay two nights just to have enough time to absorb before moving on.

Fair winds…
