Services
With berthing and hard storage for over sixty vessels and a full range of on-site marine services, Arisaig Marina offers the perfect base or stopover for those looking to explore Scotland's iconic West Highland coastline. Arisaig Marina offers sixty secure, single point moorings within the bay, which are available to both seasonal and visiting vessels looking to discover the spectacular sailing ground along the Northwest Highland coastline.
From March to October, Arisaig Marina's passenger vessel MV Sheerwater will safely transport foot passengers to and from the spectacular Small Isles of Eigg, Muck and Rum pausing to enjoy any marine wildlife along the way. She is skippered by Arisaig legend, Ronnie Dyer, renowned for his knowledge of marine species in our waters.
The second largest of the Small Isles, the Island of Eigg's most notable feature is its famous "Sgurr", a distinctively shaped ridge of pitchstone, which reaches a height of 1290' above sea level, but there's far more to Eigg than meets the eye! The crossing to Eigg takes approximately one hour, although it can take longer when there are good sightings of whales, dolphins or basking sharks!
The Island of Rum is the largest of the Small Isles and measures 8 miles wide by just over 8 miles long. The island is incredibly mountainous with Askival, the highest point of the island, reaching 2,659' above sea level. In fact, three of the island's peaks exceed 2,500': Askival, Ainshval and Sgurr nan Gillean.
A walking and wildlife enthusiast's paradise, the island of Muck is the smallest and most fertile of the Small Isles and can be reached within two hours of Arisaig, either directly or by stopping off on Eigg en-route. New for 2021 we have two sailings to Muck on Saturdays, departing at 9.30am and 2.30pm.

Me and took the ferry to Eigg. £20 return. Climbed An Sgurr. Had a beer and a haggis butty. Back on the ferry. Quick stop at Muck on the way back. And then… the amazing crew on MV Sheerwater pointed out a pair of Golden Eagles, stopped for a pod of dolphins, then stopped, reversed and steered round so we could all watch 2 Minke Whales. Flabbergasted. This wasn’t just any ferry. It was the MV Sheerwater…. Probably the best ferry in the world. THANKYOU for lifetime memories. ❤️

Just back from the most wonderful day cruise to Loch Coruisk on the well equipped beautiful Orca III with Arisaig Marine Ltd.
Highly recommended.
A very friendly welcome from Donald and his crew made us feel relaxed and in safe hands. Their expert wildlife knowledge (even knowing where the Minke whale we saw would resurface) helped us have some very special close up encounters with seals, porpoises and a sea eagle on the return journey.
Not forgetting the breath taking views of Skye and Rum and Eigg, and the magnificent Cullins lining our sailing up the Loch, and then the chance to disembark
