Churchton harbour - RAASAY
Written by alain place | 5th Jul 2024
The pontoon was destroyed in spring 2024. Partially returned to service in July 2024 but no fingers, no water nor electricity.

I've added notes on the Pontoon facility over in Churton Bay on Raasay.
UPDATE AUGUST 2022
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 19th Aug 2022
I reviewed these notes in August 2022. The Moorings Officer here has changed so there is a new number for him. Very little else has changed apart from the PMA asking £15 per night to use their moorings. The plans for a marina here are advancing slowly - they're looking for massive funding this summer. I've added an image of their hopes in our gallery

Busy bustling town.

Picking up a visitors mooring in the harbour is probably the easiest. Anchoring is possible but it is crowded and empty space is quite a dinghy ride. The harbour is fairly sheltered but some swell can work in. The tender landing can get crowded so make sure your mooring line is long enough to lay off a bit. The town can be very crowded with coach parties and when a cruise ship turns up it will take days to get your fish and chips. There is water via a commercial hose but beware the pressure. I had a pillow tank and stupidly managed to burst it! A good place to get odd stuff as it has timber/builders' merchants.
