About Drumbeg

The jetty at Culkein Drumbeg, an attractive hillside settlement, was built at the end of the 1800s in an effort to bring prosperity to the area. Most vessels preferred the shelter afforded by nearby Loch Nedd, so Culkein Drumbeg never took off as a fishing port. Today the jetty is closed for safety reasons, but the bay here remains home to a number of small craft. Prawn fishermen land their catch here.
