For visiting boats
Tobermory Harbour lies in Tobermory Bay at the northern end of the Sound of Mull, right below the town. It has been run since 2017 by the Tobermory Harbour Association, a community company and statutory harbour authority, which lays visitor pontoons and blue-and-white visitor moorings in the bay and a marine diesel berth on the North Arm breakwater pontoon. Smaller boats are first come, first served, so arrive early in summer; there is no pump-out in the harbour.
