Port Logan

Port Logan is a small fishing village with an unspoilt sandy beach  situated on Port Logan Bay. Close by is the Logan Fish Pond, a remarkable tidal pond famous for its tame sea fish, which can be fed by hand It was constructed in about 1800 as a source of fresh fish for the tables of nearby Logan House.

If anywhere illustrates the mildnes of the climate in this part of Scotland, it is Logan Botanic Garden, part of the National Botanic Gardens of Scotland. Here, growing quite freely, are exotic plants and trees such as the tree fern (which can normally only survive in glss houses in Britain), eucalyptus, palm tree, magnolias and passionflowers. In fact, more than 40 per cent of all the plants and trees at Logan come from the Southern hemisphere. Within the garden are the Discovery Centre, which gives an insight into the plants that grow here and the Fish Pond which has a castellated keeper‘s houe. In the 19th century ladies wishing to bathe in the pond could change in the adjacent bath house which is also castellated.

Port Logan achieved national fame whe the TV series 2,000 Acres of Sky, supposedly set on a Hebridean island, was filmed in and around Port Logan.
