Skye is the biggest island in the Inner Hebrides and travelling
there has been made much more convenient by the introduction of the modern toll free road bridge connecting the island to
the main land at the Kyle
of Lochalsh. However
for those looking for a more traditional crossing the ferry from Mallaig is still a most enjoyable option.
