Charming cobbled streets tumble down to the miniature harbour, which is sheltered by cliffs and surrounded by historic fishing cottages.

The names of those who drowned are Brown, Burns, Cunningham, Dewar, Kay, Ramsay, Runciman and Taylor. The fishermen left 6 widows and 30 children without fathers.
