Car and passenger ferries run from mainland Scotland at Ullapool straight to Stornoway, or a more scenic route can be had travelling onto the Isle of Skye over the bridge, and then catching a ferry at the North end of Skye to the Isle of Harris, which is directly linked to the Isle of Lewis. There are also ferry ports at Lochmaddy (North Uist), Lochboisdale (South Uist), and Castlebay (Barra).

Regular flights visit Stornoway airport from Glasgow (1 hour flight) and Inverness. There are also daily flights between Glasgow and Benbecula, and between Glasgow and Barra.

 

More details about ferry timetables can be found by going to the Caledonian MacBrayne website.

The local authority covering the Outer Hebrides is Comhairle nan Eilean Siar and their website contains large amounts of information on the local area and services.

Visit Hebrides has a large amount of information pertaining to the Outer Hebrides and is well worth a visit.
