Berneray is a port town located in the Sound of Harris in Scotland and adjacent to the island of Pabbay. Berneray is the only island in the Sound of Harris with inhabitants, as the other islands are as of now unpopulated. The quaint island is home to the local fishermen, as well as a handful of residents living around Bays Loch. Bays Loch is also the location of the harbour where ferries make port.

Berneray is also an access point for Leverburgh. The Berneray to Leverburgh ferry route connects the two cities for tourists and locals. Leverburgh is christened after Lord Leverhulme, a soap manufacture responsible for constructing large sections of the towns piers, houses, and roads.

Leverburgh was meant to be a large fishing port, but Leverhulme died before realising this dream. The town now consists of a scattering of residences, a post office, and some shops. The Berneray to Leverburgh ferry route is operated by Caledonian MacBrayne (CalMac), a well known ferry service provider with more than 150 years of operating experience.

CalMac provides ferries to Leverhulme from Berneray on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday four times a day. Additionally there are ferry crossings on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday leaving three times a day. The ferry company has specialised in providing service to more remote island communities such as Berneray to Leverhulme ferry route.

CalMac also services ferries to small islands and ports such as the Firth of Clyde, the western coast of Scotland, and the Western Isles. CalMac is the most notable ferry service provider in Scotland, and accommodates up to five million passengers and one million vehicles in a year’s time.
