Visit Islay and Jura

Information about Islay and Jura to help your visit.

This is a mixture of information to help the visitor to Islay and Jura and for those who just like the islands. This information has been collected since 1989 about the isles of Islay and Jura and their villages. There are many pictures and many links to other Islay and Jura sites and, oh yes, I live in Bowmore.

I hope you enjoy your visit, please contact me if you would like help with travel or accommodation. Mail to me

In an exciting development for the site I am hosting a subsite for charity, the Islay Pillaged Malt event. A voyage by traditional skiff, rowed by volunteers, has visited all seven Islay distilleries, pillaging 25 litres of 10 year old malt from each. The resulting unique malt will be auctioned to benefit the Islay Lifeboat and Cancer Research.

See the history page for recent changes.
