It is blessed with Four beaches, all of which are stunning; Balnakiel,Sango Bay, Sango Beg and Ceannabeinne. Balnakiel faces west and is a white sand and azure blue waters stunner of a place when the weather plays ball. Backed by small sand dunes and with some small cliffs and tiny bays to explore at its northern side, on a calm day it is ripe for exploration, while when the surf comes through the bay its a great place to experience the power of the Atlantic Ocean.

The other Three beaches all face North and are backed by some large, imposing Cliffs, offering a great juxtaposition with Balnakiel, just round the corner. They can produce some incredible surf. Between Sango Bay and Sango Beg lies Smoo Cave, a must visit. A large freshwater and Salt water Cave leading right on to the beach, it can be explored on foot or guided tour further in by boat.
