Welcome to Tanera Mhor, the largest and only inhabited island of the summer Isles. Full of history, beauty and wildlife, Tanera Mhor has something for everyone. Home to otters, seals and many bird species, picturesque cottages and its own unique Post Office.

Tanera Mor lies 1.5 miles offshore from Achiltibuie in the mouth of Loch Broom, and is the largest island in the Summer Isles group. With a plentiful fresh water supply, a deep sheltered anchorage and high lookout points, Tanera's history goes back to early Viking raids and beyond.

Today there is a salmon farm based in the bay, and in the summer sailing boats find shelter on their West Coast wanderings. The holiday cottages lie in the north side of the bay with spectacular views of the hills on the mainland.

There's a small cafe on Tanera and a Post Office selling our unique Summer Isles stamps. During the summer the island is visited briefly by the "Summer Queen" returning to Ullapool from her daily island cruise. A local boat also runs daily trips round the islands and takes fishing trips.
