💡 Good to know
- Buy tickets ahead for the Fionnphort–Iona ferry. Tickets do not reserve a place on a particular sailing; check the latest timetable and service updates before travel.
- Winter ferries thin out and Iona's abbey services echo in an empty nave — atmospheric, but build slack around the weather.
