About Poll Tarbh Coastal Shore and Blowhole

Poll Tarbh is a rugged Atlantic coastal shore associated with a blowhole feature rather than a conventional sandy bathing beach. The interest here is the exposed geology and sea action, which can also make cliff edges, spray and wave conditions hazardous. Stay on lawful established routes, keep well back from exposed edges and do not assume facilities or supervised bathing. Check weather and local warnings before making this a coastal stop.
