Why this matters

Stravanan Bay features sandstone and limestone cliffs formed during the Carboniferous period, around 300 to 360 million years ago, through sedimentary deposition in shallow marine environments. The area is notable for its well-preserved fossil content and coastal erosion patterns that expose layered geological formations.

What is recorded here

Stravanan Bay is shown as a bay on the public map of Argyll and Bute. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
