Wind on the beach

What the spot record warns about

  • very strong and gusty wind common (Tiree is one of the windiest inhabited places in the UK)
  • cold water and remote location - limited servicesCold water, wind chill and remote island logistics make equipment failure and fatigue more consequential than at mainland urban spots.
  • changeable Atlantic weatherTiree's wind is Atlantic frontal/synoptic, so squalls, rapid direction shifts and strong gusts are realistic hazards.
  • airport flight path proximity on the island's east side
