Kintyre, the Islands & Oban Travel Guide

    Kintyre Photo Gallery

This area became known around the world, when Paul McCartney & Wings sang about it back in the seventies. Nestled between the west coast of Scotland and the Outer Hebrides are the Kintyre Peninsula, and the islands of Bute, Arran, Islay, Jura, Colonsay and Oransay: and all these places are in the path of the warm Gulf Stream, meaning palm trees are not uncommon in this part of Scotland. This area is also known for its malt whisky, and you can tour the Bowmore Distillery on Islay and discover ‘the world’s most award-winning single malt scotch whisky’.
