Enard bay to Cape Wrath

Far North West of Scotland from Rubha Coigeach, North of Ullapool to Cape Wrath including Enard and Eddrachillis Bays.

At the Southern End of Enard Bay is the headland of Rubha Coigeach with spectacular cliffs. Enard bay itself is a large indent into the mainland with a few fairly sheltered inlets and a handful of offshore islands although none are particularly sheltered until you get to Loch Inver at the northern end of the bay.

At Loch Inver, there is good shelter and several pontoon behind the breakwater at Lochinver Harbour. As the largest settlement on the West Coast North of Ullapool, Lochinver is a busy fishing town with various facilities. Further north from Loch Inver is the smaller Loch Roe and a long headland to the Point of Stoer where there can often be heavy seas due to its exposure and the strength of the tidal streams.

There are many interesting places between the Point of Stoer and Handa Island in Eddrachillis Bay and make the long trip to get here well worth it. Handa Island is a designated Bird Sanctuary and further North are two main Lochs - Loch Laxford and Loch Inchard. Kinlochbervie Harbour on the North shore of Loch Inchard is offers good shelter and plenty of facilities as well as being only 15 miles from Cape Wrath.
