Getting to the Isle of Mull

There are three regular boats to Mull from the mainland which carry cars. The first and most used, is the route from Oban (mainland) to Craignure (Mull), which is the most direct route if you are coming from the South. Caledonian MacBrayne operate all three of the routes - just visit their website for more information. Reservations can be made in advance on this route and the number to call for all ferries is 0800 066 5000.

The second route is from Lochaline on the Morvern peninsula (mainland) to Fishnish (Mull). If you are in the Fort William area, you can take the Corran Ferry across Loch Linnhe and then drive to Lochaline, before getting the ferry across to Mull. You can't book in advance on this service, you just turn up and wait your turn.

The final route is from Kilchoan on the Ardnamurchan peninsula (mainland) to Tobermory (Mull). Again, you can't book in advance on this service. For more information on the Calmac desinations on Mull visit their information page.
