Watch for otters and porpoises in the Sound of Mull
Take a stroll along the coast or sit and watch the Calmac ferry cruise below Morvern's volcanic cliffs. Fishnish is a great place to watch for seabirds like gannets, oystercatchers and terns. If you're lucky you might even spot otters, seals, dolphins or porpoises.
To the east of the car park, you will find the historic harbour of Ceadha Leth Torcail ('the pier of Torquil’s half-share'). Cattle were loaded onto boats here and ferried to the mainland to join drove roads on the long walk to market in Falkirk.
