But this isn\u2019t the only Isle of Mull ferry route \u2013 in fact, we are fortunate to have three different crossings from the mainland over to Mull, all operated by CalMac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next option many visitors coming from Scotland opt for is from Lochaline in the Morvern Hills on the mainland, over to Fishnish on the east coast of Mull. This Isle of Mull ferry is even quicker, taking around 20 minutes to ply the waters back and forth across the Sound of Mull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vehicles are carried on this service too and on a sunny day, it\u2019s well worth leaving your car and heading onto deck to soak up the superb views, both of the mainland and Mull. There\u2019s even the chance to catch a glimpse of the local pair of sea eagles if you\u2019re lucky!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The final route on and off Mull is from the wild and beautiful Ardnamurchan peninsula to the north of Mull, with a ferry carrying both vehicles and passengers leaving Mull\u2019s harbour town of Tobermory to sail across to Kilchoan. Although on the mainland, Kilchoan feels easily as remote as Mull, with scenic single-track lanes, stunning hills and exquisite beaches to discover with only small detours from your planned route \u2013 ideal if you\u2019re heading northwards after your holiday on Mull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For both the smaller ferry crossings from Lochaline and Kilchoan, you can now buy tickets in advance, but you don\u2019t need to pre-book your space. They operate on a turn up and go basis, so you simply check the timetable and queue for the next available sailing. Their smaller size does mean relinquishing some of the luxuries of larger vessels \u2013 there\u2019s no caf\u00e9 on board, so come prepared with snacks and drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For all three of CalMac\u2019s Isle of Mull ferry routes, CalMac operate a winter and a summer timetable, with more sailings to choose from each day during the busier summer months. However, the island is served by a busy ferry service for almost every day of the year, with multiple sailings to choose from even in winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, whether you plan to escape to Mull<\/a> for a great value winter break<\/a> as you chase the Northern Lights, or a summer holiday when the daylight seems to last forever, you can plan your Isle of Mull ferry with ease.
