This is Barra Airport, a short-runway airport situated in the wide shallow bay of the island of Barra, Scotland. The airport is unique, being the only one in the world where scheduled flights use a beach as the runway. At high tide these runways are under the sea - flight times vary with the tide. The aerodrome is not licensed for night use.
