Cammachmore Bay |
We usually shortened this name to Cammimore.
Geographically speaking the term Cammachmore isn’t quite accurate given
that the village of that name is a couple of miles away from here and
inland.
The Bay itself is large and quite sheltered from the
prevailing south easterlies, although it’s a direct hit for any seas
coming straight in from the east. The shore itself is a mix of boulders,
rocks and pebbles and the water drains away from the landward fields in
the form of a waterfall on the northern side near to “The Banks”. The
original sewerage outfall for the village of Downies can be found at the
southern part of the bay towards the Downies side. This outfall is no
longer in use.
