Isle of Mull Ferry

What's On Scotland
Take the Isle of Mull Ferry. Well, three ferries really.
Apart from the isle of Mull ferry to Oban, there is the Fishnish to Lochaline Ferry and the Tobermory to Kilchoan Ferry.
For tourists travelling up the west of Scotland the isle of Mull ferry going to Graignure, offers a wide range of new destinations to explore. The ferry will allow you to tour the isle of Mull spending time in places like Tobermory which would please the youngsters no end. Especially if they were fans of the TV program Balamory.
This is not to say that all the tourist passengers will be disembarking at Craignure. No, no, they will stay aboard the ferry to enjoy the beautiful views once more on their return back to Oban. This works out cheaper for them and provides a sail while taking in the scenery.
For those embarking at Craignure there are coaches waiting to take passengers to all the different areas of Mull. Some of these coaches will take them to where they can catch another ferry to Staffa and enter Fingal's Cave. Plus take them to Iona where they can learn about the birthplace of Christianity in Scotland. The abbey and museum are well worth a visit as is Iona itself.
If you have heard about the isle of Mull railway and planning to see it, then you can save yourself some time as it has now been discontinued. It would actually be a good idea to check what trips and tours are still on when booking your island of Mull ferry trip to avoid disappointment.
Of course if you have brought your car onto the island you will then have the freedom to explore further afield. These routes on Mull are just for starters as there are more than just one ferry crossing to isle of Mull.
After driving off the ferry at Craignure, it's only a short drive up the road before you arrive at Fishnish. From here the ferry crosses the Sound of Mull to Lochaline on the Morvern Peninsulas allowing you to drive a different route north to Fort William and beyond.
To get to Fort William the Corran ferry will take you across the narrow stretch of water of Loch Linnhe to Corran. It runs at regular times up to around 9. 30 in the evening, so there is no need to book.
If you want to take in Tobermory before heading north you could carry on past Fishnish to Tobermory to stay overnight on the isle of Mull or just spend a few hours there. From here you could catch another connection, this time the Kilchoan to Mull ferry which takes you onto the Ardnamurchan Peninsula.
It's always wise to check out all of the isle of mull ferry times when planning your tours. Especially if you're running to a tight schedule. There is so much to take in and often you will find that you want to stop and take some images of the beautiful scenery.
The Mull to Kilchoan ferry will allow you to explore Ardnamurchan, skirt Loch Sunart and drive up to Mallaig on a route perhaps you have never done before.
The Kichoan and Lochaline ferries allow those with a car the opportunity to see places that so often are missed when sticking to the main routes driving north. These new areas of Morvern, Ardnamurchan, Sunart, Ardgour and Moidart will all be opened up to the traveller. For many it will be fresh new vistas and all because they decided to take the isle of Mull ferry from Oban.
