Scalasaig

Scalasaig (Scottish Gaelic: Sgalasaig) lies on the east coast of Colonsay, in the council area of Argyll and Bute of Scotland.

It is the main settlement on the island[1] and its only port; thus tourists arriving by ferry must pass through it on the way to any part of the isle.

It contains the island's shop[2] and post office (in the same building),[3] parish church,[4] microbrewery,[5] doctor's surgery,[6] village hall,[7] cafe and hotel/bar.

[8] The name "Scalasaig" is Norse and means "Skali's bay".
