First time in kerrera?

The new link road between the north and south of the island makes getting about the island on foot or by bike very simple – no more bogs or bracken to fight your way through! There will still be an islander’s vehicles only policy meaning the roads are quiet and safe.

You can also rent e-bikes on the island. Easy peasy.

stay safe

We want everyone to have an incredible adventure on Kerrera, but we also want them to stay safe so they can come back again and again.

Explore our deserted beaches and rugged coastline, but please be careful as the water surrounding our little island is full of energy and can be very dangerous. That’s why we encourage everyone to wear suitable footwear or to stick to the paths and a map is essential.

There are island maps located at the marina and at the community noticeboard at the middle ferry.

  • What should I pack for a day trip?

    Comfy walking shoes, a map or access to the visitor guides on our website, and a bag for all the snacks and goodies you pick up along the way! Check the weather forecast, but as the weather can change quickly in this part of the world we always suggest a raincoat and suncream in the summer.
