UPDATE AUGUST 2022
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 10th Aug 2022
No changes
EE blackspot
Written by julianc | 24th Jul 2022
EE coverage on the west coast has improved remarkably in the last few years but is nonexistent at Flowerdale except for a small spot near the Boat Club. Perfectly good in Strath.
UPDATE SUMMER 2021
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 7th Jul 2021
I reviewed these notes in July 2021. Not much has changed though it appears that the builder's DIY shop adjacent to the Hotel over the bridge at Gairloch is back in business. Badachro has laid buoys and there is a wee shop there now but not for victuals.

These notes were reviewed in May 2019. New prices and a new chart. We are making enquiries as to the area of jurisdiction of the Highland Council here.
UPDATE APRIL 2017

I reviewed these notes in April 2017. Apart from price changes there is nothing to add here.
