Canna

Say hello to Canna! This small island to the south-west of Skye is bursting with human history. Canna is thought to have been inhabited since 5000BC, and now supports a small crofting community. Dogs may visit but must be kept under strict control at all times as livestock may be roaming freely – the island is a working farm. A passenger ferry (no cars) runs from Mallaig, operated by Caledonian MacBrayne (01475 650100).
