"In the land-locked waters of Shuna Sound and loch, and Lochs Melfort and Craignish, the most beautiful scenery and easy sailing can be enjoyed with safe anchorages all about, and tides for the most part mild." Frank Cowper got it absolutely right over a century ago (Sailing Tours: The Yachtsman's Guide to the Cruising Waters of the English and Adjacent Coasts, Part V, The West Coasts of Scotland, the Orkneys, and the west coast of the North Sea. Frank Cowper, Upcott Gill, London, 1896). Like Loch Craignish, the two adjacent lochs of Melfort and Shuna are pretty rather than dramatic, well sheltered, and with quite a lot of anchorages to dot around in. Mind you the tide in the Dorus Mòr is anything but mild if you want to sail between Loch Craignish and the other two lochs.
