Swans on Whiting Bay shore

Dawn over Holy Isle

Whiting Bay is an excellent location from which to base your holiday on Arran with grocers, restaurants, cafes, a pub, not to mention the licensed DIY shop - don't get that in B&Q do you! Just north of the village is the excellent Kirkend Nursery selling organic produce and large plastic farm animals!

Dawn from the Black Rocks, just south of Whiting Bay

The foreshore, from Sandbraes at the North end to Black Rocks at the south of the village is an ever changing view with the light and sea in constant motion. Watch out for the swans and canada geese outside the Royal Arran Hotel, they've been a feature of whiting bay so long the Primary school has adopted a swan as its emblem

Holy Isle from Black Rocks

From Whiting Bay there are many walks and mountain bike trails for which there is growing enthusiasm on the Island.
  A walk not to be missed, the beautiful Glenashdale falls is an easy two hour walk. With the spectacular cascades of the main falls, mossy paths where the sunlight filters through the trees and cataracts streaming into hidden pools
