TRAVEL
​

Being beside the departure point for the Leverburgh-Berneray ferry, we are often asked about various aspects of island travel.   Below are some useful links which may help when planning your journey to/from/around the islands:

There is just one ferry company servicing the whole of the Western Isles and they are Caledonian MacBrayne.  For all information regarding routes, timetables and the purchase of tickets see their website www.calmac.co.uk
