About Ardroil Sands Campsite (Uig beach)
Basic campsite set within the dune of Traigh Uuige on Ardroil Sands Beach where camping is possible with a semi-wild feel. The site has a modern toilet and shower block, car parking and an extensive grass area for tents and campervans. The site is located on Ardoil Beach which is a huge white sandy beach where wild swimming is possible (although it may take you a while to reach the water on low tide, or find any depth when you do as the sand is relatively flat and goes for miles). Locally you will find Carnish Beach which is another stunning white sandy beach and also Uig Sands Restaurant which serves up delicious sea food with incredible views. For whisky lovers, you will find Abhainn Dearg Distillery a short 30-minute walk (or stagger) away (the most westerly whisky distillery in Scotland), tours can be booked online via their website. To book you can either phone ahead or just turn up, there is an honesty box to pay, after that pitch up and enjoy the views. The site is run by the local community.
