About

South Kintyre is a long, sparsely populated peninsula forming the southwestern tip of the Kintyre landmass. Its landscape is dominated by rolling moorland, forestry plantations, and a rugged coastline that faces the Atlantic Ocean to the west and the Kilbrannan Sound to the east. The area's economy has traditional ties to agriculture, forestry, and fishing, with the small villages of Southend and Drumlemble serving as local hubs. The single-track A83 road runs the length of the ward, connecting its scattered communities.

The coastline features several long, sweeping beaches, such as Carskey Bay, which are exposed to the prevailing weather. A notable historical site is St Columba's Chapel near Southend, marking a traditional landing point associated with early Christian missionaries. The remote Mull of Kintyre lighthouse, situated at the peninsula's southern tip, is a prominent landmark overlooking the significant sea passage towards Ireland. Much of the inland area consists of open hill ground used for sheep grazing.
