Balmaha-Boat-Yard

The yard was established 150 years ago by Sandy Macfarlane’s Great Grandfather, John Macfarlane. The yard is very much a family business with traditional values.

The ferry runs from the Balmaha Boatyard to the North Pier on Inchcailleach Island.  The crossing is very short and operates on an ‘on demand’ basis.  A minimum of an hour on the island would be suggested, though most visitors prefer to stay longer. Please advise the Ticket Office of your preferred return time at the start of your sail.

Hours of opening:

9am – 5pm (During Season)
9am – 4pm (Outwith Season)
