Carloway

A few protected coves running from Carlowway, Shawbost to Bragar. Shawbost beach is one of many beautiful beaches on the island of Lewis. It is reached by one of two single track roads, one arriving at the beach from each side, which diverge from the main road. The beach itself is about 200 metres long and has a slipway on the left hand side. On either side of the beach are creags as well as cliffs; there is a coastal walk from Dail Beag to Bragar. The beach is usually very quiet, even in summer.
