Elgol is at the end of the road, a small crofting and fishing village on the Strathaird peninsula, a perfect place to relax and unwind. The village lies at the foot of the Cuillin and boat trips are available from the harbour to Loch Coruisk in the heart of the Cuillin. During your boat trip, you may catch sight of dolphins, porpoises, whales an even basking sharks and a rich variety of sea birds which could include sea eagles and golden eagles.

Elgol is the ideal for walkers and climbers, you dont need to take the boat, you can walk into the Cuillin also. Canoeing and kayaking are also a popular activity here. The village has a small shop which provides some basics, however we recommend you stock up with everything you need for your stay in Broadford. Coruisk House the local seafood restaurant, uses the locally caught shellfish on its menu. The cafe in the village is a welcome haven for visitors and it also has a gallery displaying work by local artists, the views here would certainly inspire any would be artist.

Broadford is the nearest village to Elgol and has a selection of shops - supermarket and petrol station. Many craft shops including Skye jewellery and a number of pubs and restaurants. Portree the capital of Skye has a fantastic visitor centre, The Aros Centre, with a cinema, restaurant and large craft shop.
