Bracadale

Bracadale (Scottish Gaelic: Bracadal) is a settlement and civil parish on the Isle of Skye in Scotland.

[1][2] It lies on the west coast of the island, west-south-west of Portree, on Loch Beag, an inlet off Loch Harport.

Nearby settlements include Struan to the west and Coillore on the opposite shore of Loch Beag.

[3] The name could derive from the Old Norse for "juniper dale"[4] or "bracken dale"; or from the Scottish Gaelic breac and dail, meaning "spotted valley", or "valley of the trout/salmon".
