About ISLE OF LEWIS

MV Isle of Lewis is a ro-ro ferry operated by Caledonian MacBrayne between Oban and Castlebay, Barra. Built in 1995, she remains one of only three ships in the CalMac fleet over 100 metres (328 ft) in length; the others, Loch Seaforth, being longer by almost 15 metres and Glen Sannox being just over 1 metre longer. Originally built to operate between Ullapool and Stornoway, Isle of Lewis rarely deviated from that route for 20 years. Since March 2016, she has served the Isle of Barra all year round from Oban. The only other routes operated by CalMac she has ever worked on is the triangle between Uig, Lochmaddy & Tarbert and between Oban and Craignure, but only ever during an emergency.
