Paddleboarding in Scotland - Loch of Skene
Loch of Skene is a large lowland, freshwater loch in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It lies approximately 1 mi (1.6 km) to the west of the village of Kirkton of Skene and 9 mi (14 km) west of Aberdeen.[6]
The loch is partially man-made, being dammed at its outflow on the southern shore to form a reservoir. Before 1905, water from the loch was used in the making of tweed and to turn the mill wheel at the Garlogie Mills. When the mills closed in 1905 the water was used to generate electricity.[3][7] The loch is about 6 foot deep at its deepest.
It's a great place for paddleboarding. The water is quite shallow, making it safer that other lochs and it's not as cold as other deeper lakes or lochs in the area. It's also not too wavy or too windy, so it's a good place for beginners. There is easy access and free parking. The walk from the road to the loch is only 2min. You are best to park on the side road, not next to the castle tower.

Also impressive floods in Mineral Well park ua-cam.com/video/ZwxiOFvYHhA/v-deo.html These are the waves we are getting in Stonehaven, the day after the floods, and they aren't even the biggest ones!! Still quite impressive though. Thankfully the weather wasn't too bad or who knows... I nearly got knocked over by a wave at one point so careful where you park your car.

Also impressive waves at the sea front... ua-cam.com/video/gefHknmhtRY/v-deo.html Amazing floods in Mineral Well park at Stonehaven, recorded this January 8th 2016. I'd never seen the park like this before, it was actually nicer like that than it usually is! Also the waves at the front of the sea walk were quite rough, you can see on my other video.

This beach is one os Ibizas "secret" places. It's a lovely calm area where you can enjoy a relaxing day and have a good snorkel around. It isn't a sandy beach, so you'll have to find a nice flat rock to sit on. The water is clear and there are many types of fish and even octopus. It's not the easiest place to get to, most people go there by boat, but it's worth the walk. The road turns into a d...

The access to the tower has recently been closed because (people who don't deserve to live on this planet) dump their trash inside. Close by is the "pedrera de cala d'Hort" also known as ATLANTIS, ...

    Visit in 2018 was my first since my sister and I swam in the open air pool right through 1960,s summers and midnight swimming sessions we were too young then. Memories of the loudspeakers playing-Sealed with a kiss in 1962,my sister ducked by my uncle and in tears,Gordon Black,Ian,s brother and breaking my grannies flask in the grass common ground from a long distance with a plastic football ! By the way the first BBC founder Director General John Reith was born in Stonhive in 1889.

    He estado este año en el festival. Has reflejado el paseo por el litoral, con su rincones escondidos. Lo he andado varias veces. Has reflejado bien ambiente fabuloso de este festival. Pero por mucho que hablemos y veamos fotos o videos para enseñar a la gente o amigos; si no se esta varias veces en el festival: No se creen lo les cuentas. Hay que disfrutarlo insitu hay que dejarse llevar por el ambiente y la musica, en cualquier rincón, tambien del paraliapub y bar caracas.
