Tiree Guide

Tiree Ferry Port

The Tiree ferry terminal is the westernmost port of the Inner Hebrides, Scotland, sitting on the island’s east coast. As the island’s primary port, it provides frequent crossings to the Isle of Coll immediately to the northeast, and to Oban on the mainland. The terminal can be found just off the B8068 on Pier Road to the northeast of Scarinish, the main settlement on Tiree. Free parking is available outside the terminal building and, inside, you’ll find a spacious waiting area with seats and toilet facilities. This particular area is famed for its Gaelic architecture, so be on the lookout for the fascinating black houses, a traditional thatched home for both families and cattle, during your stay.
