About Acarsaid Mhor (Eriskay) Harbour
A good sheltered natural harbour offers protection from all directions. It is on the east side of Eriskay in the Minch. Mostly fishing with some local leisure users. Stornoway MRCC, Barra Lifeboat, 3 Miles to Ferry terminal for Eriskay to Barra (Calmac) Waste disposal at pier, 1 Tonne SWL Crane, 3 miles to Eriskay Community shop Pontoons next to main pier. Good anchorage in the harbour area. Limited berthing. The local harbour master can call in engineers on request. Need Antares charts as entrance tricky, accessibility ok but watch bar at 1.7 chart datum so care needed. Lit so could be accessible at night. Leading marks lit as is Stb hand mark. Good holding and plenty of space. https://www.visitouterhebrides.co.uk/our-islands/uist/eriskay
