The Buddhist Centre for World Peace and Health on Holy Island off Arran is adjacent to the jetty where the little ferry from Lamlash docks. The Buddhist community here have several other retreats around the island. See http://holyisle.org/index This view is from the slopes of Mullach Beag on the path across the top of the island. Note how the wavelets on the sea are running perpendicular to the island's coast rather than breaking parallel to it, this was because there was so little wind and that which there was, was pushing the water between Holy Island and its larger neighbour, Arran, through the channel between them. Later the sea became glassy calm with no breath of wind - see Image]
