About us

BY BOAT

With berthing for 100 boats and moorings for 30, we are bound to have space for you and your boat. You can book online or just turn up and come to the bar to find us.

BY ROAD

Long stay parking can be found at the north pier, Oban, which is very convenient for catching our marina taxi. Alternatively, you can find long stay parking at the Kerrera ferry terminal two miles out of Oban on Gallanach road.

ON FOOT

For those who can’t walk on water, simply book a water taxi here. We’ll collect you from the north pier in the middle of Oban and take you over to Kerrera Marina and back (if you’re not staying).

Kerrera public transport

BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT

There are regular buses and trains from Glasgow. Both the train and bus station are a 2 minute walk from the north pier, Oban – where we can collect you with our water taxi.
