Fisheries Projects:
Northbay Inner Harbour
Northbay Port Association has undertaken improvements to the Inner Harbour to provide a facility
that can be used by all the community. The new facility has a large slipway, a second berthing wall
and some onshore parking. Shelter for berthed vessels has also been improved significantly.
Castlebay Fisheries Pier
The aim of this project is to provide improved facilities for fishermen adjacent to the Vatersay
Causeway. The facility would include a 30m berthing wall, a breakwater, floating pontoons, and a range
of onshore facilities. The project is phased to allow incremental improvement to the current facilities.
