Stornoway Harbour Ferry & Cruise Port

A Working Hebridean Port

Stornoway Harbour is the maritime heart of the Isle of Lewis, the largest town and port in the Outer Hebrides. Its three piers, deep-water berth, slipways and marina host a continuous flow of vessels that keep this remote island community connected to mainland Scotland.

Ferries, Cruises & Fishing Fleets

The port serves the vital Ullapool ferry route alongside visiting cruise ships, a hard-working fishing fleet, survey vessels, Coastguard and RNLI lifeboats, yachts and pleasure craft. Each arrival and departure reveals the skilled seamanship that sustains a real working harbour.

A Panning Harbour View

This camera follows a roaming pattern, opening on a wide panorama before sweeping across four distinct areas of the harbour and returning to the full view. The result is an ever-changing yet fixed vantage over Stornoway's quays, moorings and the sheltered waters of the inner harbour.

Gateway to the Outer Hebrides

Framed by low hills and the rugged coastline of Lewis, the harbour is the gateway to a landscape of Gaelic culture, ancient standing stones and wild Atlantic scenery. It offers a captivating window onto everyday island life at the edge of Europe.
