Ferry from Isle of Tiree to Scotland

About Isle of Tiree

Tiree is the westernmost island of the Inner Hebrides in Scotland, known for its uniquely mild climate. As one of the sunniest places in Britain, a trip to Tiree makes a great summer holiday, with its white sandy beaches and excellent windsurfing conditions, earning it the nickname ‘Hawaii of the north’. If you would rather a more relaxed activity, the fertile grassland provides the perfect surroundings for long, scenic walks. The island is also known for its prehistoric sites, particularly the 1st Century AD broch and the large ‘Ringing Stone’ that emits a metallic ring when struck, so there’s plenty on offer on this beautiful Scottish island. Tiree’s main ferry terminal is in Scarinish on the east coast, providing easy access to the neighbouring Isle of Coll to the northeast and slightly longer crossings to Oban on the Scottish mainland.
