Scotsman Walking Wearing Kilt On Machir Bay Beach On Spring History Visit To Isle Of Islay Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K Spring travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and sporran and walking during storm waves on Machir Bay Beach on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to the West coast of Island of Islay, Britain, United Kingdom. It is a sandy beach on the rugged western coast famous for its dramatic Atlantic swells and waves. The treacherous waters have claimed several vessels, including the Stella in 1835 and the Norwegian barque La Plata in 1888. The bay's most tragic event was during WWI, when the armed merchant cruiser HMS Otranto collided with HMS Kashmir during a storm. Approximately 470 men perished. The bay is bounded by the cliffs of Cnoc nam Muc and faces the open Atlantic, with no land between it and Canada. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome.
