Achmelvich

The stunning white sands and clear blue waters of Achmelvich Beach ensure this is one of the most popular in Assynt. The sand is actually mostly made up of crushed shells which give it the white colour.

​

There is a second quieter beach just north of the main beach - you can walk over the headland between the two. Please download the Highland Council Keeping Safe on Achmelvich Beach leaflet below (also available in the Ranger hut).
