This forecast covers all the west facing breaks on the Mull of Kintyre from Glenbar south to Machrihanish including Westport, Middle Beach etc.
Some local advice:
Swell height at beach is 1/3 of height at 62105, or height in metres at buoy = height in feet at beach. Needs direct west swell. Any kind of onshore/cross shore wind wrecks the wave as there is no shelter. Transit time of swell from buoy(62105) to beach is 12-15hrs. Minimum conditions are 7ft and 7secs with glassy sea, if worse than this, save yourself a drive!
