Old Photograph Landing Stage Iona Scotland

Old photograph of thatched cottages by the landing stage for the ferry on the Isle of Iona in the Inner Hebrides off the West coast of Scotland. Thes days visitors can reach Iona by the 10 minute ferry trip across the Sound of Iona from Fionnphort on Mull. The most common route is via Oban in Argyll and Bute. Regular ferries connect to Craignure on Mull, from where the scenic road runs 37 miles to Fionnphort. Tourist coaches and local bus services meet the ferries. There are very few cars on the island, as they are tightly regulated and vehicular access is not allowed for non residents, who have to leave their car in Fionnphort. Bike hire is available at the pier, and on Mull.
