Kinlochbervie harbour

Kinlochbervie is a natural harbor that provides a safe spot for fishing boats. The harbor is situated close to the abundant fishing grounds of the North and West Coast of Scotland, which means less time and fuel expense for boats to reach the fishing areas. This maximizes the time spent fishing and minimizes costs for boat owners. The Kinlochbervie Fish Selling Company operates an auction market where fish is sold. They offer an all-inclusive service, including supply of ice, stores, and fishing gear. Modern refrigerated transport is available to take fish to destinations in the rest of the UK and Europe. The harbor area includes all waters below the level of MHWS that form the approaches of Loch Clash, Loch Inchard, Loch Bervie, and Achriesgill Bay.

The pontoon development, which was completed in March 2009, has been extended in 2013 to cater for the increasing number of visiting yachts and other pleasure crafts. The extension was jointly funded by The Highland Council Harbours and The Highland Council LEADER program. The pontoons can now accommodate four more visitor berths. The east pontoons are available without power or water, while the west pontoons have both power and water. Berthing at the east wall access steps is only allowed for emergency access purposes.
