There are ferries to Skye and the outer islands from Mallaig (2.5 miles) or cruises to the Small Isles from Arisaig (7 miles) from which you can see a wealth of birdlife, seals and minke whales.

How to get here
From Fort William take the A82 road to Inverness and then turn off onto the A830 to Mallaig (Road to the Isles). Follow this road for approximately 42 miles, staying on the new road through Arisaig and take the 2nd turnoff to the right marked “Morar”, which is about 7 miles from Arisaig. The road bears right and you pass a garage on the right and a school on the left. Sandholm is the 2nd house on the left after the school.
