Tips

September 10, 2022

Ottering about. We hoped to see some otters as we pottered over the causeway. We didn’t even though we were there at the changing tide so we played pooh sticks over the bridge with the crab remnants that the otters had left from a previous meal. If you look to the east, you’ll see an island in the middle of the channel. To the north of the island is where the SS Politician was blown up and sunk after she’d been fully salvaged. This ship is well known from the film Whisky Galore and the pub Am Politician has fascinating memorabilia and good food. We met the daughter of the Chief Salvage Officer who was also visiting.
