Port Logan
From the car park go across a wooden walkway, down some steps on to the sand and turn left to walk along the beach. When you reach the start of the village, climb on to the road in front of the Port Logan Inn, now closed. Turn right and then continue walking along the main street, passing the war memorial, to reach the village hall.
In Two Thousand Acres of Sky, a 2002 BBC television series, the village hall featured as the village school, and had a school sign fixed to the front. There was also a timetable for Caledonian MacBrayne ferries displayed on a notice board on the wall. Opposite the village hall is a small but picturesque harbour with a rather unusual lighthouse. Nowadays, Port Logan harbour is used only by a few pleasure craft but it was a thriving fishing port in the past. Move away from the harbour area and continue along the road to the farm of Muldaddie.
Just before the farm turn left on to an old hill track and head uphill. Near the top look back downhill for a magnificent view back to the village and across Port Logan Bay to the Mull of Logan. The track is heavily overgrown and quite rough in places and there are two gates to go through.
Continue along the track to a T-junction, following the public footpath sign to the left to emerge onto a country road at Cowans Farm.
Turn left and follow the winding road back down to Port Logan. Go back on to the beach, turn right and retrace your steps to the car park. From here you can continue along a rough road to the Logan Fish Pond. It's right at the end on the left and is by the only building there.
