Isle of Skye beauty spot turned into 'plastic graveyard'

An Isle of Skye beauty spot has been turned into a "plastic graveyard," according to a disappointed tourist. Tash Draper was left "heartbroken" by the sight she was greeted with during her five-day holiday on the stunning isle.

The 27-year-old, from Devon, was out for a walk on Monday when she came across the sea of plastic "bedded into the ground" at a beach near Ardtreck Point Lighthouse. Tash said she was "taken back and upset" by the litter that greeted her whilst out walking in the area.

Pictures taken by Tash showed the rocky beach completely covered in plastic, wood and sea debris. In front of the beautiful hills and animals, large plastic tanks and ropes could be seen scattered across the ground.
