Joe is the harbour master/fuel attendant with beard and is a wealth of local information.
The shelter is good, with just occasionally a swell in strong N/NE winds.
There are 38 Visitor Moorings for hire in Tobermory Harbour and reservations are accepted. The Visitor Moorings are coloured blue with a white top, a yellow pick up buoy and have THA painted on each one. Email: harbour@tobermoryharbour.co.uk
Please tie-up to the mooring chain and not to the yellow pick-up buoy.
Please anchor towards Aros Bay, or in the Doirlinn. Do not anchor in the area where the visitor moorings are as the blocks and chains are on the seabed.
Anchoring in the harbour can be a problem. The holding is not good in the very soft mud and the debris of fish farming and other old moorings can be a hazard.
The harbour can get very crowded during July and August. An alternative is an anchorage in Lock na Druimh Buidhe, but, as in many Scottish Lochs (including Tobermory Harbour), a fair amount of anchor warp is needed as the shallow area near the shore is narrow and the depth very quickly drops to 20 or 30m.
