Visit Waternish, step in and discover the magic... #visitwaternish
Welcome to Visit Waternish, the website for the Waternish peninsula on the Isle of Skye
The magic of Waternish begins with Fairy Bridge, just as you leave the road from Portree to Dunvegan. The spellbinding panorama of Loch Bay leads your eyes to Dunvegan Head, and round to the Minch and to North and South Uist on the horizon. From Trumpan and Geary the views move further north to Harris and Lewis – all these islands being part of the Outer Hebrides or the Western Isles.
Waternish offers more than beautiful views and landscapes. Enjoy the taste of Skye with some of the best fresh local food and drink the island has to offer, as well as some of its leading tourist attractions. Waternish boasts some of the best sunset and night sky gazing locations in Scotland, all of which you can do from the comfort of one of the many Self Catering and Bed and Breakfast accommodations within the area.

We thought we'd share this photo of the formal opening of Skyeskyns in 1986 attended by two John MacLeods: Chief John on the right with the fleece, and John MacLeod, the first Skyeskyns tanner, on the left hand side holding the plaque. A plaque you can still see today just by the entrance to the tannery. On the right hand side is Clive Hartwell, who founded Skyeskyns with his wife Lydia.
#KeepingTraditionAlive #ComeHome2Skyeskyns Visit Waternish shared Creagach Cottage Skye's post.3 weeks agoIt’s the height of our summer season in Scotland with lots of folks from all over the world enjoying our beautiful country. We thank you for choosing Scotland, Skye and Creagach Cottage. Skye is so much more than the big 5 tourist focused sites where day tourists flock. Yes these sites are busy (but 95% of the Island is not as busy as you may have read by a few fake news reporters out there) We are lucky at Creagach Cottage to be tucked away in Skye’s most beautiful Waternish Penninsula with so much to see and do on the doorstep.
There’s lots for tips in the cottage on great places to visit on the island where you will find peace and quiet away from the main tourist hotspots.
September and October are lovely months to visit as the days are still long and the midges have gone, along with some of the day trippers! We have availability in both months. Don’t believe the dramatic reports that Skye is full! How many tourists can you spot in this picture? Come and Visit Waternish and Skye and chill out at Creagach Cottage.
Visit Waternish shared Isle of Skye's post.3 weeks agoLovely view, with plenty to see and do as well.
"We came by the Fairy Bridge upon Waternish and I set down in my journal that we are entered into this enchanted world where land and sea and sky conspire to steal your heart and take your breath away... "
