Port Askaig Guide

Port Askaig Ferry Port

Port Askaig is a small village on the east coast of Islay, the southernmost island of the Inner Hebrides, Scotland. Askaig offers routes to Colonsay to the north, Kennacraig to the east and to Oban on the mainland, making it one of Islay’s busiest harbours. The port can be found at the northern end of the A846 in the town of Islay, with a bus stop situated outside the terminal, serving the areas of Port Ellen and Ardbeg. The terminal building has a large waiting area where you can relax before you embark. However, if you have time to spare, be sure to wander through the picturesque port village which was voted ‘5th most desirable postcode in Scotland’ by Royal Mail in 2014.
