Red Bay
The foreground red rocks, from which the bay presumably takes its name, are conglomerates and sandstones of the Red Arch Foundation, laid down by flash floods on an alluvial fan. Their exact age is still the subject of debate.

Unconformity
An unconformity is where there is a gap in time between one layer of rocks and the layer above it. Here, there is an angle between the topmost bed of rock and the beds underneath, which must have been tilted by tectonic movements after being laid down and before the topmost layer was deposited. The similarity to the classic unconformity at Siccar Point Image is easy to see. Geologist for scale.

Larne lifeboat at Cushendall
See Image The annual open day for Red Bay lifeboat station coincides with the local Glens Festival. There is usually a good audience for the rescue demonstration. Larne lifeboat Image often attends (although, I understand, Campbeltown has also called) and was receiving a steady flow of visitors.
