The pretty harbour village of Garlieston became famous for the sea trials of the structures for the floating Mulberry Harbours, used off Normandy immediately after d-Day. Garlieston was chosen as a secret location for its trials because the tides were similar to that of Normandy. The remains of two wrecked “beetles” on Eggerness rocks, and the remains of the “hippo” at Rigg Bay can still be seen today. Garlieston is very popular with tourists, with its sandy beaches and stunning coastal and cliff top walks.
