Rhins of Galloway - A Journey from Portpatrick to the Mull of Galloway

Ready to go off the beaten path? Let's drive down the Rhins of Galloway peninsula and make our way from Portpatrick to the Mull of Galloway.

'Rhins of Galloway' is a story about exploring the far southwest of Scotland - the hammerhead-shaped peninsula known as the Rhins of Galloway.

Located where the Irish Sea meets the Solway Firth and the North Channel, the peninsula is a hidden gem, so far out of the way that it would be impractical to visit on most itineraries. But those few who venture in this direction, will be rewarded with bustling harbour towns, endless miles of sandy beaches, surprising flora and a geographic superlative.

After the story, I share with you 5 tips to make your road trip to the southwest of Scotland the best it can be.

Are you ready? Great – let’s travel to Scotland!
