About this spot
Old Keiss Castle, a ruined tower house on top of cliffs, is overlooking the Sinclair's Bay, a mile north of Keiss village centre in Caithness, Highland, Scotland.
This scheduled monument truly shines when the tide cooperates. Capture the contrast between the azure waters and the verdant algae-covered rocks lining the bay.
With caution, navigate the slippery stones towards the water's edge to take the castle in the background and the green stones as your foreground. Timing is crucial, as low tide is essential for this captivating shot; otherwise, the stones will be submerged.
