Dalmore Beach
Not the usual view: In 2016 on August 8 an oil rig was blown ashore at Dalmore during a towing operation. "The towline between the rig and its tug was lost en route from Norway to Malta amid high winds and heavy seas in the early hours that day. The rig grounded with 280 tonnes of diesel on board and two of its four fuel tanks were damaged in the incident. It resulted in the loss of 53,000 litres of fuel, most of which is thought to have evaporated with no damage to the environment", telegraph.co.uk wrote.
